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!
