I know it's supposed to be Wordless Wednesday and I always have trouble with the Wordless part. This picture was taken last April 2007 when we took Evan to see Thomas the Train in Chattanooga, TN. 2008 Thomas Tickets
We had so much fun that day and it was all about Evan, which will never be the case again on family trips with two more in tow. I grieve that for Evan, yet I know that we will always have one on one dates which makes it okay. It is very important to Clay and I both that we always take time to do things individually with our three children and not always group them as one.
I remember that day, that I had to find a spot to sit down and talk with the receptionist at my doctor's office because we were trying to schedule some tests that needed to be done before we could met with our Reproductive Specialist again. I had no idea that a month later I would be caring twins. As happy as the pictures from that day make me, it makes me sad too, because I look at that baby face that I so quickly lost. It seems like while I was pregnant I lost the baby that I already had, as he changed into such a boy. I wasn't able to pick him up at all during my pregnancy because I was considered, High Risk. After the twins were born and I recovered from my surgery, and I able to pick him up, he was suddenly too big to pick up. I can't believe how much Evan has changed in just over a year, he doesn't have any of that baby look about him anymore.

wow... that's so awesome!
He REALLY REALLY has changed in the past year! Time passes much to quickly, so we must remember to take time each and every day to appreciate where we are in life - and to reflect on how much we have to be grateful for!
It is amazing how quickly our little boys grow and how independent they seem to get overnight. Somedays all that I want to do is hold Braden in my arms and stare at that beautiful face and praise God for my wondeful blessing, but all that he wants to do is wiggle out of my arms!
Aweee... So sweet but sad :(
