Default Birthday Past and Present
My little one turned 2 this past weekend. I posted a few pics on my thread PollyC's Journey and realized a little WOW!
Here is a pic of last years 1st birthday and this years 2nd birthday...WOW how much we have all changed in a year. Time flies when you are having fun. Yet these are great memories for the 1st time tonight it was hard for me to look at these pics of last year...I guess just realizing how much I have changed. I look at myself everday and tonight I could see the difference. Just weird but in a good way.

The pic from last year was a few weeks before I made up my mind that it was time for a change. My health was spiraling down and my PCP told me I must do something or die very young. I had to take control for my family so we could have many MANY more birthday celebrations together! I am sooo glad I did!

OMG PAULA!

I didn't know Carter's birthday was this weekend too! HAPPY BIRTHDAY to CARTER! Seems people were celebrating nationwide!

You look AWESOME in the pictures--I love the ELMO shirts. Liz woke me up yesterday morning asking if we could dress up as Dora and Diego. I wasn't feeling that vibe!

I feel like a heel for not knowing! (Especially after you wrote both in a thread AND a PM for Lily!)

I'm so glad to see how well things are going for you!

Take care,

-Mike
