My son is 1 year old. He just turned 1 this month. I feel like we've been so busy and have had so many huge changes this past year. I don't know where the time went or how we made it through as well as we have.
When I think of his life all I see is transition and ear infections.
First, born in Indiana on April Fools day 2011. At 4.5 months old we drive from Indiana to Louisiana for two days to visit extended family before heading west. Texas for two nights, one night with my cousins, the next at a hotel. Arizon for one night with family friends. Then finally San Diego where he's had 4 ear infections, pneumonia, bronchitis, and just recently contracted Hand Foot and Mouth disease. We've moved from my parents to an apartment in Imperial Beach for all of one weekend (long depressing story), back with my parents for a few weeks, then into our current place. He was 7 months old when he got his own room and I couldn't have been more ready to have my own space. By that point even the thought of living with people for one more week was depressing.
My son has had one babysitter, three daycares and we are currently looking for a fourth. I think I've already found where I want him to go, but still have a few more interviews to conduct.
When I pray, I honestly thank God for giving me such a great son. He is social, active, happy and well adjusted. Just goes with the flow. He is so silly, loves to climb into his toy box, love to play with phones, lap tops, toilets, trash, batteries, books. He smiles so easy, laughs often. He melts my heart every day. I pray that I can be a mom he'll be proud of.
