Today was Josiah's first birthday. It's hard to believe a whole year has come and gone since he came into our lives. Since then, a lot has changed! He went through a lot in his first couple of months and I hate to say it, but it is kind of a blur to me now! Many of you may not know, but he had jaundice real bad, so much so that for about a week we were going to the hospital to have blood drawn every day. That finally ended and then not long after, he ended up with RSV. We all know how scary that could have turned out, but God kept him from serious harm. He has brought so much joy to my life even though he definitely can be a stinker! He has just recently started throwing temper tantrums. That is no fun!
We had his birthday party at Mema and Papa's house. We had his favorite dinner: meatloaf, mashed potatoes and green beans. He also had his very own cake to dig into. It was so sweet, he had to look at us before he would even touch the cake, as if to say, "Can I?" He was so happy to be able to touch it, and Jacob helped with the first bite, putting some on his finger and feeding it to him! At present opening time, he was very excited to open his card from Nana and Papa Tom when he found out it sang to him! He loves those musical cards!! He danced and danced!
Saturday we will be going on his birthday trip to a children's museum in Chattanooga, TN. We hope to have lots of fun!!
Love to all!
