Benjamin James

10 years ago today, I became a parent. 

My world was absolutely rocked. 

I was naive, clueless and oblivious.

at 7:36 p.m., a 21 inch, 7 pound, 11 ounce baby changed my life forever.

and I am so glad.

Ben has become a sports-crazy, video-game playing kid that I love being a mom to.

He is very kind. Pretty quiet. Loves to read. Loves his siblings. Great big brother.

Joy to be around.

We have both grown so, so much in these 10 years. I can hardly imagine the next ten.

Happy 10th Birthday Ben. 

We love you.
