Three Years Ago Today...

Three years ago today, I understood...
why moms drive cautiously in the right lane
why dads spend hours baby-proofing the kitchen cabinets
why parents stand next to their baby's crib just to watch him breathe

Three years ago today, our house...
became a place overflowing with baby toys and accessories
became a place filled with the sweet sound of lullabies
became a place where a family lived

Three years ago today, I realized...
the joy of a baby's smile
the heartbreak of his cry
the sweetness of his hand in yours

Three years ago today, Andy filled...
our hearts,
our home,
our lives,
with love

Happy Family Day Andy! There isn't a day that goes by that Daddy & I don't thank God for the privilege of hearing you call us Mom and Dad.
