Happy Birthday to my littlest goof! (dial-up warning!)

[LaraMN]

My youngest, Jack, turns three today. :cry: :loveya: :cry:


Back when all I knew was that he was a boy, and he would never be a "typical" kid; back when I thought any of that would matter...



After his slightly early arrival! 5 lbs, 15 oz.



A couple months old- he couldn't smile yet, so we weren't aware of what we were "in for"....:evilgrin:



At a little over a year- he was scared of everyone except immediate family::rofl:


A little over two y/o. Drinking some yogurt?


Last Halloween- he absolutely loved handing out candy, but was very aggressive about it, and scared a few kids.
:evilgrin: :rofl:


My little big boy. What a difference three years make.



"There is only one difference between a long life and a good dinner: that, in the dinner, the sweets come last. " -- R.L. Stevenson

Thank you for all the days piled high with sweets, Jack. Happy Birthday!
Love Momma.

4. Happy Birthday, Jack!

I hope you're having a wonderful one! :hi:

[LaraMN]

7. I let him run around naked for ten minutes. That'll be the highlight

of his day, for sure! There's nothing he loves more than running around without his pants on. Hopefully he moves on to other "favorite" pursuits, in the coming years.:rofl:

13. Well who doesn't love that!

Every chance I get! :rofl:

21. Actually, I've been meaning to speak with you about that

It really makes rehearsals distracting and performances, well, you know. OK, during performances we can charge more when you're in this mode, but it is still damn distracting!

At National Cathedral I think you should exercise a little more discretion, and at least wear a hat.

Very touching tribute, Lara... nothing else I can say except you were obviously made for each other. :cry: :) :D

Here's to the coming year of fun and adventure!

9. Thanks, G.

He's my buddy. I feel like I have a very special connection with him (as cliche as that may sound.) I've just *known* things about him, along the way...

17. Hi, sweetie!

You brother, too? There's a whole lot of birthdays today! I'm making Jack his favorite dinner, and some cupcakes, and he's opening presents after dinner. We're having his actual party Thursday night. The kids' birthdays are always so bittersweet. I'm sure I'll have a good cry before bedtime. Good to see you!:hug:
