And on the lighter side...

We had Katie's 1 Year Birthday Party over the weekend. It was really nice. (Pictures will be available soon!)

Of course, Katie got to enjoy totally playing with her cake unhindered. (Although she didn't seem to enjoy eating it too much. Ice cream was a hit though.)

However, during a 1 Year birthday party you (as a parent) realize that this one birthday party is as much for you (or more) than for the child. You think back over the last year and all the amazing things that have happened. And in some ways, time has flown; but at the same time, you can hardly remember your life before your child entered your life.

What an amazing ride life is.
