The clouds have lifted and the sun is brightly shining. My head is clearing as well, and my eyes are beginning to see the beauty of the light. Promise. Hope. Happiness.

!!!!MIGHTY FINE, DANE IS NINE!!!!


Nine super fast and fun years have passed with Dane on this Earth and there is nothing to say short of the fact that he makes the world a better place. I KNOW, for one, that this kid is destined for BIG things. I feel truly blessed to be his mother and to be able to watch him grow up into just a really cool kid and eventually a respectable man. We are headed to my Mom's for a little shindig tonight-- swimming, pizza, presents and a mint chocolate chip cake that he picked out (and I'm almost certain to forget in the freezer...LOL).... I'm just filled with love and pride. I'm *his* mom....and *HE IS NINE!*



"God warns us not to love any earthly thing above Himself, and yet He sets in a mother's heart such a fierce passion for her babes that I do not comprehend how He can test us so."

Awww.... I can not believe he is NINE! That is crazy! He is as handsome as the last time I saw a piccy of him, wow! (I saw your little note to me on my blog-- what a sweet surprise to make me smile! :) I shot you an email with the last email address I had for you, but I'm not sure if it's current!) I'm so happy to have found your blog! :)
