8 years ago tonight I was wondering if that baby boy we had been expecting would ever arrive. My water had broke at 630 am on 8/6 and nothing much was going on! It was a long night and a long next day. FINALLY at 905 pm on 8/7/2003 Kyle Steven came on the scene. It is amazing how in such a short time you can have this little bundle and feel like you haven't lived a bit of life without him.
Well, there have certainly been a lot of great times (and trying times) in the last 8 years. Some highlights from this past year:
1. Having a great year in 1st grade.
2. Trying his first organized sport - baseball
3. Continuing with piano
4. Reading better and better. This can have its pros and cons. He recently was looking over my shoulder and saw what I ordered Allison for her birthday!
5. Cub Scouts
6. GCC Kids Choir
7. Growing SO tall -- 51 1/2 inches at last check-- he loves to show me that he is almost up to my chin. And, that in 8 more years he'll be able to drive a car (slow down, Kyle!)
In the year ahead we are looking forward to ... football.....hopefully more baseball.... outloud worsip team at GCC.....2nd grade fun and I'm sure many more surprises.
He is such a joy and a precious gift!!
Happy Birthday Kyle!!!

Glad to know about this surprise birthday party. Got to know about few exquisite LA venue from my friend and now planning to book one for my mother’s kitty party next month. Will surely hire professional baker and caterer and thinking to bake cookies at home.
