Nine.

Nine years ago, this precious soul entered my life after 3 hours of labor and 3 pushes. He has been such a delight and is a most treasured son! His compassion and heart for others constantly inspire me, and I am so honored to see the Father glorified through him daily.  He is merciful and grace-giving.  He is so gentle and loving, and simply lights up my life with joy.  He is constantly giving to others, always trying to make sure they feel special.  I can’t believe that my beloved son is nine years old, I am so blessed to have him in my life!  Happy birthday, sweet boy! You are a gift and I’m so grateful to be your mama!
