This is my "Baby Drew". Sometimes I look at him and I can't believe how big he is....how quickly life flies by.
We were sitting on the porch yesterday chatting when I took this picture. I was CHATTING with Andrew! He is my last baby and I must admit that sometimes I do baby him a little too much but I can't help it. Just look at him. He has the bluest eyes and the most beautiful little gap in his front teeth (a family trait).
He is now signed up to play baseball, he can't wait. He loves all kinds of sports and has since the day he was born (as a baby he would sit forever and watch sports with Lee). As a matter of fact, his first word was BALL and that's all he said for a long time.
Today I just want to thank God for all the blessings in my life. I guess there are no small blessings but there are some blessings that impact our lives and some that could get overlooked. We were blessed that Lee returned safely from Iraq and I was blessed with those 5 minutes on the porch with Drew.
I am going to try harder in my everyday life to see my "little" blessings.

.....and check out that super cool Star Wars watch his daddy bought him...haha, he loves that thing!
cool watch, that is actually the second thing I noticed. The first was I thought to myself, he looks like me a little. I hope that doesn't sound like a vain aunt, but it is nice to have nieces and nephews and see a little glimpse of yourself in them from time to time. He looks so serious like Lee and Eric! He is precious. I am tearing up here. I'm glad you all are safe.
of course he favors you, because he favors Lee...and I think you look like your big brother.
He isn't nearly as serious as he looks in this picture. He is crazy! ---in a good way though, he goes full force in everything he does. He doesn't hesitate. I wish I could be more like that!
He is also very sweet and at times gentle with me and the girls. But mostly he is all boy, all the time. I love it!
Thanks Angie...I am so glad you visit and respond! I miss you so so much. It was so good to IM the other day.
I know he looks like a big boy! I guess he is technically, but he's still my baby! He helped Lee do yardwork today and he was so cute, he was all sweaty and dirty...hahaha
..and you are so right about the Momma's little boy thing, I never understood that bond either, but now I know...
