Happy 1st Birthday Baby!

I made this slideshow for you of your first year. I have so many photos of you and it was so hard for me to choose because in each one you are so precious and they all are so special to me. So.......the slideshow is pretty long but I feel like it shows your first year well and the great times we've had this year.
I chose this song for you because often times when we are doing something the lyrics play in my head. The song also is a great way to explain why I choose to parent you the way I do!

"I can remember when you fit in the palm of my hand.
You felt so good in it; no bigger than a minute.
How it amazes me you're changin' with every blink.
Faster than a flower blooms, they grow up all too soon.

So let them be little,
'Cause they're only that way for a while.
Give 'em hope, give them praise,
Give them love every day.
Let 'em cry, let 'em giggle,
Let 'em sleep in the middle,
Oh, but let them be little.

I never felt so much in one little tender touch.
I live for those kisses, your prayers an' your wishes.
An' now you're teachin' me how only a child can see."

I do let you sleep in the middle baby boy, I love you every day, and I love to hear you giggle!
