My heart beat for him the moment I knew he was on his way, but when he was born, my heart was gone for good. It is amazing how eight pounds can shift a world off it's axis.
I love being a mom. It has given me a lot of insight into how our heavenly Father feels about us. I delight in my sons. I love watching them grow and learn and become the wonderful boys that they are.
E is my third born son. He came after a pregnancy hiatus of three years. Our first two boys are only 12 months and 18 days apart. Their baby days are a blur. Having E almost felt like having a first baby again.
He has turned into the most wonderful little boy. He is a thinker and puzzle solver. He can put ideas together and keep up to his older brothers so well. He has a kind heart and is compassionate to others. He has an imagination that would put an adult to shame. I love talking to him about everyday things. He loves to help me in the kitchen and takes part in chores. He listens well (most of the time). He loves his baby brother and still wants to hold him even though J is a year old. He plays well with J and wants to be apart in both his baby brother and older brothers lives. He gives the best 'great big fat hugs'. He loves watching movies, especially Cars and Cars 2. He loves his dad. He loves spending time with his grandparents. He has a lot of cars that are 'special' to him. He has a great laugh. He can't wait to go camping and I love that about him. He loves apples and always wants them sliced into a tiny bowl. He loves his aunties and uncles and cousins. He can't wait to meet his newest cousin. He loves babies. He loves to show off the sparkles on his nose.

I am so glad that I get to have E in my life. I can't believe that he is four years old. Where did the time go? E, I love you so very much! Thank you for being in my world!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Love your mom.
