... and then he was four

On July 4th, our little firecracker turned four-years-old.

It's hard to believe four years have gone past...

Then again, it feels like he's always been a part of my life.

He calls me Princess and Sweetheart.

Countless times throughout the day, he'll ask if he can marry me, kiss me, hug me and dance with me. He tells me that he loves me with all of his heart, and I tell him that I love him with all of my heart.

This drives his siblings crazy because doesn't he know, I'm ALREADY married? And also, how can I love Henry with all of my heart when there are FOUR kids in our family?

What about THEM?

"It's like lighting a candle," I tell the children. "When you take a candle that is burning brightly, you can light several candles, without losing any of the fire from the candle that started it all. That's exactly how it is with love. You can pass love around and always have more to share. And the best part is, the more love you share - the brighter life becomes."

Happy Birthday to our beautiful blue-eyed boy.

Four years later, you still take my breath away.

Thank you for being here and for making my world so bright.
