As a young mother on this date 15 yrs ago at 3:08 PM Dylan was born. He weighed 7 lbs 6 oz and was 20 inches long. Until they placed him in my arms I had never truly understood what the word Mom had meant. I was told to get lots of sleep because you never will sleep that way again, or be able to go out on the spur of the moment. But not once did anyone tell me how it would feel when that little boy learned how to say mommy, or when you returned from somewhere and those little chubby legs would run as fast as they could to hug you like you had been away for months. Or the heartbreak you felt when your child was sick and there was nothing you could do for them. Watching them climb on the big boy school bus on their first day of kindergarten and being brave until the bus was gone so you could bawl your eyes out. (Yes I did do that.. I was a nervous wreck for those 3 hours he was gone. )
There will be plenty more good and bad times. I wouldn't trade a minute of them. I am so in this for the long haul! :)
Today was a good day, Dylan also got a deer this morning during hunting season! Yeah Dilly! Happy Birthday Buddy! I love you munches, bunches, oodles and more! :)

Wow, how fast it goes.
He had a good day though?
Yes, indeed it does. He had a great day! The deer put him over the edge. :) Thanks for the birthday wishes.
