See the guy on the left? He turns thirteen today. Oh my! He is my right hand man and one of the greatest blessings of my life.
He was my first baby. And my best bud for quite some time. His first brother didn’t arrive on the scene until he was three and a half, so it was just him and me for my early years as a mom.
Oh the memories…. It feels like just yesterday. If I had known then, what I know now.
For my advice to myself so many years ago, hop over to My Blessed Life and read What I Needed to Know When My Son was One.

Ah, yes, the teen years. But, they are great so far, trust me. Mine’s a 13 y.o. girl. Time flies doesn’t it? Read all about my conclusions: http://housefinally.blogspot.com/2010/06/how-not-to-deal-with-teens.html
My oldest just turned 13 a few weeks ago. I totally know what you mean!!
They grow so fast! Mine oldest is 11 and it seems like just yesterday he was a newborn:)
Ha! Love the poses in this pic.
Your oldest and my youngest share a bday.
I’m still shell-shocked that my baby is one! Happy Birthay, FishBoy13!!!
How did I not remember that they had the same bday? Happy BDay to Little Brie!
