Happy Birthday, Chris

Wow, 21 years. Seems like only yesterday that I got to hold him for the first time.

What a great feeling that was. And throughout the years the joys eclipse all the heartaches. I wouldn't change anything for the world although he's not that little boy anymore.

Happy Birthday, Chris. I'm proud of you son.

He'll always be your little boy, no matter how big he gets, right? That's your right as a parent. :)

Very true, RL. They grow up fast but the memories they provide are priceless.

With the time difference we have I was lucky enough to chat online with him yesterday. He's doing good and was going out for his birthday last night. He said it was the first time he was going out in over a month so I guess he's behaving himself. And he's making a 4 day trip to Spain next month to play on a beach. But then he has a month of field training where he gets to fire guns, blow stuff up and sleep in a tent. But it sounds like he's doing well and I can tell this is making him grow up fast.

Oh see, this will NEVER happen to me, right? My babies will always be my babies and never be old enough to leave me, right?

Akkkk! Happy Birthday, Chris!

Sorry, Jamie, even Scott's hugs are getting fewer and further between. No more hugs for Dad.

Oh dear! I think I'm going to cry AGAIN today. That makes me really sad! We'll be sure to give each other an extra hug at the summit...okay!? :)

I don't think you have much to worry about in the hug department. You're a Mom, and Mom will always get a hug.
