Look at my sweet, sweet baby! I can't help getting misty just typing this :( I cannot believe my baby's 8!! Everyone always tells you your kids will grow up so fast...they're not kidding! Sometimes I feel like Noah's was and is my little guinea pig child. On the parenting end, I've never gone through what I'm going through with him. I've never been a mom to an eight-year-old! As a mom to Noah, sometimes I say, 'I'll never do that again' or 'this definitely works, do this with the next two.' But even though he can feel like my 'rookie-kid,' there's something so special about it. With your first, they're the ones you get to do things with first...like the first day of school, and the first time with the training wheels off, and the first baseball game.
Noah, being your mom for 8 special years has been both fun and crazy!! I'm so excited it's your birthday, I hope you have a fabulous 8th birthday and here are my 8 wishes for you!
#1: I wish you a wonderful year of firsts, my little guinea pig!
#2: I wish for you to stay such a caring big brother to watch over your little brother and sis...they love you so!
#3: I wish for you to do great things with the intellegence God has given you.
#4: I wish for you to build great things with your Legos!
#5: I wish for you to try new things and be the brave boy that you are!
#6: I wish for you to carry on that enormous enthusiasum you have into everything you do.
#7: I wish for you to stay funny forever!#8: I wish for you to deal with your crazy mama despite her downfalls :) I love you, I love you!!

Happy Birthday Noah, have a wonderful 8th year :-)
Alright. I got a little emotional for a second myself. I look at my oldest who is six and think, you are a third of the way from leaving our home. Ah, thank goodness for pictures.
And Happy B-Day Noah!
