Happy Birthday My Boy!!!

My sweet E turned 5 yesterday. Where have the last 5 years gone? I still feel like it was yesterday that he was born into the water, me kissing his little bit of black hair and in absolute awe that my baby was just born, that I just went through the journey of child birth for the first time. That he made me a Momma and a whole new kind of woman than I ever knew I would be.
My first born, the one who changed our worlds.
Oh how I love him.
He is sweet, he is kind, he is so caring and sensitive. He is the boy that takes care of me when I feel sick. That gives me a hundred hugs and kisses a day. That sits next to me and holds my hand if I am sad about something. That laughs with me and is crazy excited when things are exciting. That plays with his brother (usually) very lovingly and protectively. That looks at books with his brother. Of course he has little boy tendencies and also is competitive, and sometimes a bit rough as little boys usually are.
Oh how I love him with my whole Momma's heart.
And here he goes, turning 5 and starting Kindergarten all in the same week! (He starts on Friday.)
Happy birthday my sweet boy!
