Pie 1, Sweetie Pie, the original Pie, turns 6 today. Though it's news to no one here, time sure flies. I still remember sitting with him in the nursery at the hospital (he had to stay an extra week because of a strep infection plus he was under the lights) and just staring into his little face, so in awe of him.

I'm still in awe of him - of the person he is becoming. Though he is very much a kid, to some degree, he was born an adult. Since he was about 2 1/2 years old, I've been able to carry on actual, meaningful conversations with him. I picture many late night gab fests over hot cocoa and cookies in our future.

We've come so far in the 6 years - so many changes, great and small - and milestones a plenty. And though part of me wants to keep him as my baby forever, most of me can. not. wait. to get to know the man he will be.

I love you, Sweetie!!

Yay! Happy Birthday, Pie 1! The Dragon's was yesterday - 4 years old - and I'm having many of the same thoughts/feelings you expressed.
