Wow How Time Flies!!

Here it is April and I am finally back! My "baby" is 13 now!! I cannot believe it!! He is such an inspiration to me--he is fun, interesting, smart, and everything a mother could dream about having in her child!!! He had two lovely birthday parties and was overly spoiled as he entered into the teenage years by gifts of money and lots of things too. It was interesting to watch him opening his presents because he'd check every envelope to see if he missed anything in it--like money? This birthday he was obviously more aware of everything and acted like such a gentleman to his guests yet he is still obviously a child as well. He particularly likes playing with his cousins and friends even though some adults tried to play too. Now he is in Track & Field doing the hurdles and the 100 meter dash. He is excellent at all the hurdles that have been in his life thus far so I can see him doing the "real" hurdles beautifully!!! I am one very proud mother and am so blessed to have my wonderful Patrick!!
