Time flies when your having fun

Mashed tater

Eight years ago today I was bursting with joy. Eight years ago today you couldn’t have stopped me from smiling. I was holding you in my arms at that hospital and refusing to let you go.

As you grow I see little bits of me in you. You can look at things that make others feel bad, and laugh. You can amuse yourself for hours on end with a notebook and a pen. You and I are together on the fact that there are some things to vile to eat or even try.

When you get hurt I hurt too. When you are sad, I cry too. When you are happy my life seems so much brighter.

Happy Birthday, my little mashed tater.

    Amigo, this was a truly great post. I got tears in my eyes.
    I love this little “tater” of yours, all I have to do is look at her sweet smile and it makes me all happy inside. Lucky both of you!
    Please give her an extra birthday hug for me.
