Z = 5

I give up. These years keep flashing before my eyes - can't hold on - no matter how I try. They float on and upward like balloons just in my grasp and poof, into the skies they go. My little Zack is FIVE today ~ think that's hard to swallow ... my Ben will be THIRTEEN four months from today. Double whammy so yepperdoodle - one thing at a time. This Mama only has a certain number boxes of kleenex in the house!

Zack is super excited to be 5. He's been in countdown mode since my birthday and finally, finally, it's come at last. February 1st. I am so blessed to have Zack in my life. I had a miscarriage before I became preggers with Zack and while that was a big cry for me, it is also a constant reminder that I wouldn't have had this darling, precious, wild, funny, silly, loveable little dude, Zack, now :)

happy Birthday Zack and congrats to you! Time flies, my DD1 has turned 21 (!!!) last Saturday. She didn't think it was any special, but I think it's the age of maturity, of letting go for mums...
