My Boys: Double Whammy

Not only did I have to come to terms with my baby turning 1, now I have to deal with the fact that I have a 4 year old! How can that be!? 4! Cameron seems just too little to be so big but yet he is. He is a ball of high energy, enthusiasm, curiosity, go get 'em, tender moments, smiles, laughter, imagination and adventure. And behind it all is my first born baby who has a special place in my heart no other will ever take. I love that he would rather be outdoors than in, that he loves his little brother, that he pulls me on a sled behind his snowmobile, he never wants things to just be ordinary, he seeks to be around others and yet can be content playing by himself and that he is all boy, through and through. I can see the light of Christ burning in him and my prayer for him is that he will let that light burn so that others can see what a life with Christ can be. His goofy smile makes us laugh and shows us he will never be seen blending in with the crowd but rather doing his own thing, being true to himself all the while. It's amazing what you can see in the eyes of a 4 year old.

We celebrated with a family fun party at a hotel with yummy food, cake and swimming. Tomorrow when he wakes up I can't wait to see his eyes light up from the house decked out in birthday decorations and presents just waiting to be tore in to. We are going to celebrate with just us 4 for dinner tomorrow night. I love that he really understands what his birthday is all about and can't wait to make traditions with my boys! Happy Birthday, Cameron J!
