For 8 Whole Years...

...he's been ours! The darling little baby boy that came through me and changed me forever. I thank him often for choosing me.

Saylor wanted to go to Chuck E. Cheese today, so that's where we spent our afternoon. Everyone had a very good time, and got something they wanted from the 'prize' counter. We stopped at Target on our way so that Stone could buy him a gift. I served him breakfast in bed this morning: pancakes, scrambled eggs with cottage cheese, sausage, orange slices and hot chocolate.

He received Birth Day wishes from family and friends throughout the day, and some cash in the mail from Grandma. His Uncle Matt sent him a book, which he opened the day it came, Tuesday, I think? More gifts to trickle in through the mail over the next couple of days, and then the shared party at our new found friends on Monday. He even made an appearance at the Bodhicitta Blog!

What a *C*E*L*E*B*R*A*T*I*O*N*!!

I love you, my sweet son!

Happy Belated Birthday Saylor! We did NOT forget about you on your special day--thought of you all day long!! As we do every year on this day. You are one special boy and we love you!! The boys were even making you an awesome card, But I have no idea where to send it!! Your Christmas card (as cute as it was) came from your home address? Oh, and Cole wrote you a letter. SOOOO where do we send these things? Love to you and your sweet brothers and Mama and Papa. From the Chiolis Clan
