Bottom of the Ninth

Nine years old! Where does the time go? When I was pregnant with Kyle, while I didn't care at all about his birthdate because he was such a miracle in and of himself, I did think early June was a perfect time of year for a baby. Not too hot of weather while I was pregnant, no near holidays to compete with...but now I kinda feel bad for him that his birthday is surrounded by end of the school year and sports season stuff. We've found it's a tough time to get together friends, as family calendars are packed, add school stuff and playoffs for baseball and there isn't much time left to celebrate a single person. Team parties abound. Class parties inevitable. Busy, busy.

So while we've put off his "party" whatever it will be for a later date when friends are actually looking for something to do over the boring summer, we are so very blessed to have Kyle and his place in our family. He is one GREAT kid and life just wouldn't be the same without him!!! Happy Birthday baby!
