I would like to make a special post to a little boy who a Year ago Friday...made his way into Jon and I's lives. On Dec 19, 2007 after a scary evening with your mommy and daddy, you came mid morning into this world. Jonathan Keith Jr. after your daddy. I remember wishing it wasn't Wednesday night, because I wanted to see you that night...but due to getting off work late and then church. Visiting hours in the "Nic Unit" were over. So thankfully I had that Thursday off...and after a stop at Starbucks for mommy's special drink I hurried my way to the hospital to see you. Later that day or the next Jonathan made his way to see you. It was hard seeing you hooked up to some of those tubes and machines. But you were a strong little guy. And about 3 weeks later you finally got to come home. One of your first outings was to OUR HOUSE!!! Boy we had fun!! I am suprised between me and Lizzie that you don't see constant flashes before your eyes with all the pictures we took of you.
Buddy, it has been fun watching you grow and I can't believe your 1!!!! You have taught me alot about babies. And now that I am going to be a mommy myself I am glad for the lessons I have learned from you. I hope you and my little one are friends....but if it's a girl YOU BETTER NOT BREAK HER HEART!!!!
We Love you...and here is a special Photo Blog just for you.
