Happy Birthday

Our baby turns 23 today (22 July), and I was looking over his baby photos and thought I would share.
The first photo he is 2 days old, his brother is 3 1/2 years old. Birth doesn't do anything for the mothers looks I can tell you, it takes a few days to feel a bit normal again, and in my case after 16 hours labour then a C Section, it took about six weeks or so to get back to normal.

The second photo he is 5 months old with his fluffy dog. He dwarfs this dog now, yes he still has it and it still looks pretty good.

The third photo is with his girlfriend not sure when but in the last 12 months. I will try and get one later today of him to have a birthday picture.

As I post this today, 23 years ago he would have been 1 hour and 15 minutes old. My boys make my heart sing, they can bring a tear to my eye just thinking of them. They have been great to bring up, but sometimes with some heart tearing issues, I guess that is what being a parent is all about, being there for them, loving them unconditionally (even if they push that fine line so hard it bends a mile), Happy Birthday Timothy. Love you always, XXXX

Here is the photo taken after dinner tonight of Tim, Ruby and the fluffy dog from previous photo. What a good boy having this picture done for his mum.

Hope you dont all have too much to drink.But must say to still have a toy 20 something years later is pretty good.

Hope Tim has a happy birthday.

They grow too quickly, don't they? And Donni's right - you haven't changed a bit :)

My girlchild turned 23 on the 18th - a belated happy birthday to your son and of course to his mom, who did the hard work!
