Portrait of a 5 Year Old Boy

Happy birthday little man!

I can't believe it's been five whole years since I met and fell in love with this little being that had been making me throw up for the past nine months! No seriously, Matthew has been a joy since day one. I am an incredibly lucky woman to have him as a son and I'm so proud of the little person he's becoming.

But the best part of Matt's fifth birthday? I told him as I was tucking him in tonight that I can't call him my baby boy anymore because he's my big boy. And he replied, "But Mumma, I'll always want to snuggle with you, even if I'm big."
(I asked him what he was doing with his arms and he said, "Making a heart shape.")

Just curious - has he asked about being six yet? My daughter was so thrilled to turn 4 this past summer and not 1 day later asked when she would be 5. It's all she talks about. I'm praying that when she does turn 5 she will find some peace. ;)
