A few days to play

I am off and running with my handsome son for a few days. We are spending some quality time together in New York City. 

Sightseeing, exploring, shopping, taking selfies, and having some crazy fun. 

There may be a few bevies involved.

That is the plan.

I promise to bring you home a souvenir, which will likely be in the form of many photo's to share here next week. 

But for now, I'm excited to have the days to play and explore. 

And so happy to have this time alone with my son.

In the Wink of an Eye

First Birthday

Happy Birthday Son.

I don't know how it all happened so fast. In the wink of an eye my Son grew from my baby boy into a mature man. And now he is turning thirty.

Wasn't it just yesterday that we were up in the wee hours of the night drinking.......... milk? As the first baby, he generously allowed me to try out my parenting skills without even a manual to guide us along the way.

There will be 30 candles on Dallas' cake this year (ok, we won't put them all on at once). I was thinking back today over so many incredible heart tugging memories of my Son; he has given me a million reasons to be boastful and proud. We are blessed with a wonderful and warm relationship.

I could write pages and brag for hours about how special Dallas is; not just because he's my Son. We all benefit from his quick wit, compassionate nature and devotion to his family and friends.

When you blow out the candles on your cake, make a big wish. 

There is no one more deserving of having all their birthday wishes come true, than wonderful, wonderful YOU.

Happy Birthday. Love Mom
