It’s not possible.

This little peanut CANNOT be turning FIVE today.

Or, as we called him at the hospital, our “little yellow peanut” thanks to some jaundice…

{you can read his birth story briefly here}

It could not have happened FIVE years ago already…

that we welcomed this beautiful little boy into our arms and our hearts…

Yesterday, I told him he couldn’t turn five because he is my baby.

“Mommy, I’ll always be your baby. Even when I’m 30.”

{cue major waterworks}

You’re growing up fast Big J, but you WILL always be our first-born baby and a precious gift from God.

Happy FIFTH birthday handsome boy!

We are so proud of you!

And we love you to infinity and beyond!

    Oh how hard it is to watch our little boys grow up. And yes, they are always always our babies.

    Five is one of my very favorite ages. You’re going to have a great year!
