Happy Birthday

Lucky #7

:: Happy Birthday ::

Happy Birthday to Mason!  I can’t believe he is lucky #7! How can that be?!? I know as kids we were told by our parents that time really does fly once you have children….and they are so very right! Mason entered this lovely world on a hot November day.  The year he was born was one of the hottest summers that we had here in Southern California.  Yes, I know I was pregnant and most women claim that the year they were pregnant was super hot, but it truly was {I have a list of friends that can attest to this, wink}.  I remember having to leave the hospital in shorts, all of which is the last piece of clothing a mother of a fall baby wants to be wearing after having a child.  I pray you Mama’s out there never have to experience that.  Heat and pregnancy really don’t mix.

I can go on and on about my pregnancy, delivery, etc., but what is most important is what his birth and life have taught me.  I do believe I was truly chosen to be Mason’s mama.  He has opened my eyes and heart to more life than I have ever expected.  You see I think we all have in mind how life will be and how things will go during and after our pregnancy.  All of the baby books filled with information on what to do and how to do it all makes it seem as though raising a child can be and will be a text book situation.  What I have learned as a mother is that more often than not, raising a child or a baby generally does not follow a guideline or a particular path.
