Time Did Fly By

Where did the time go? My little guy turned one year old in October and it seems as though I blinked my eyes and he grew up overnight. He's the sweetest little boy that melts my heart with his big baby browns. My son is a testament to the fact that God knows what we need when we need it. If I think back to when I first found out that I was expecting him, I have to be honest that I wasn't thrilled with God's timing. I was still working at the time and the thought of being pregnant while in a managerial position that carried huge responsibilities didn't thrill me. While my heart had been pining for years for another child, if I had the choice I would've picked a time that was a year or so after leaving the workplace and after being settled into homeschool with the kids. I praise God that He's God and He doesn't operate under the control of man, and He's sovereign over everything. His timing was just perfect. He orchestrated the life of my son into our lives just in time to usher me out of the workplace. As my belly swelled in my office just before leaving my career behind, I believe that God used the gift of motherhood to show others that it's okay to make a sacrifice for the family when you're following your heart.  

He has sort of flown into our hearts and we're silly as ever in love.

 



For his big day he showcased his new, big boy haircut and dawned his superman costume. 

 

I can't NOT blog about my boy turning one without reminiscing through pictures
