It is not possible that he turned 1.
It is not possible that he turned 2.
It is not possible that he turned 3.Who two weeks ago didn't want to turn 4.
Didn't want to have a party.
Didn't want cake.
Didn't want presents.
Today.
He wants me to text "everyone".
And tell them it's his birthday.
Jobie and I were alone.
For a few moments after he was born.
I remember just looking at him.
Marveling that I had a third son.
A fourth child.
Fascinated by those tiny hands.
Those tiny toes.
Those tiny ankles.
(I've always loved my kids ankles.
Strange, but true.)
A nurse walks in.
Disturbing my pondering.
And says: It looks like you are in love.
I am.

I'll tell you what's not possible - that you've had 4 gorgeous kids and you still look so fantastic yourself!
Happy belated birthday to your sweeet baby!
