Bodhi is 2!!!!


I am the mother of a 2 year old. I can't believe it. 2 year olds walk and talk and sing and dance and tell jokes and act silly and go to preschool and so on and so on. Lying here, coming down from a robot cake-induced sugar high, and looking back at the year that has just ended, I am completely overwhelmed with many emotions. I feel so happy to have such a wonderful, healthy, happy little man, I feel incredibly lucky, and I feel a little sad that Bodhi is really no longer a baby. We have had an extremely eventful year full of ups and downs and adventures. We've lost jobs, gotten jobs, gone back to jobs, moved to a new city, taken on MANY new challenges, and been so busy that many weeks I have no idea where the time has disappeared to. What I now realize is that regardless of what has gone on this year, good, bad and ugly, we've all come out on the other end with enormous smiles on our faces for one simple reason. Bodhi.

Thank you Bodhi. We love you more than we will ever be able to properly express to you. You are the absolute centre of our universe and will forever be. No matter what this year brings us and no matter what is beyond that, that is one thing that will always be true. Happy Birthday my little boy.
