2 Years Ago...

... we welcomed Isaiah Ben into our little family. We named him with our favorite boy's name, although he didn't receive it until a few minutes after birth. We learned how to swaddle, nurse, and check for fevers. We learned how to change diapers, clean up spit-up, and give baths in a little tiny bath. We watched him roll over, scoot around on his belly, grow out of his little outfits, delight in the wonders of the world, taste 'big people food', take his first steps, learn how to blow kisses. Now, walking has turned to running, spinning, 'jumping', sliding, climbing, and dancing. Those little coos have become almost full sentences. And those little kisses come with such affection. 2 years ago today, we had no idea that that first joyful day would be multiplied time and time again, that we would so love being parents together, that we would laugh and smile so much as we got to know this little person, our son. Happy Birthday, Isaiah!
