Eleven years ago we went to the hospital to have our firstborn,
without a clue how much our lives were about to change.
God blessed us with a beautiful and healthy baby boy.
We were inexperienced and unprepared, but the Lord has been gracious to help us along the way.
Josiah has brought so much joy into our lives.
And now he is growing up...much too quickly.
This year he began to show his age and said he just wanted a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting. No special shapes or designs. In his words, "Just slap some frosting on it."
I didn't "just slap it on," but he liked it anyway.
Happy Birthday, Josiah! We love you!



Happy Birthday, Siah, er, Josiah!! :) Since I laid eyes on him the day he was born, he's been "Aunt Meredith's Siah"! I'll try to train my brain to not call him that before he turns 20!! The cake looks great (even if it's chocolate lol)! Happy Birthday! I hope you've had a great day!! Love, Aunt Meredith
ReplyDeleteThanks, Aunt Mere! He doesn't mind being called "Siah" We use that a lot around here. Just NOT "Joe!" Love ya!
DeleteI promise I would NEVER dream of calling him Joe!! lol
DeleteHappy birthday, Josiah! Wow. Seems like yesterday you were announcing his arrival. I think I have a copy of the Curious George photo somewhere. I really love the third photo, of you and Josiah. You both look so radiant and happy. I hope he had a great day!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Valerie! He had a great day. It's bittersweet to watch them get older, isn't it?
