I HAVE A PRETEEN!!!

WTF???? I guess I'm back to asking myself that same question. Since when did I get old enough to have a 12 year old. YUP, Liam turned 12 on Thursday and every time I thought about it during the day, YUP, I cried. I know, it's a pussy thing to do but we cannot believe it's been 12 years since this beautiful soul entered our lives. He's kind, gentle, loves animals (which is the total opposite of me) and he is truly an old soul. He seems to just click with certain people and all animals. Now, certain people he does not click with and that's ok too. He's like me. He can tell you within the first five minutes of meeting someone if he is ever going to like them. If it's a no, then it will stay a no. I guess this blog today is for him. For that kindred spirit that brought our little family together, for that little boy that took us a long time and a little help to create, for that little boy that was given to us by God nine months after my daddy died and was a lifesaver for me, for that little soul that helped me heal my wounds for the loss of my daddy, for that little boy that I used to hold and pray to God to keep him safe and sound through the night (still do) and for that little baby who stole my heart the minute I met him at 5:26pm on Wednesday, October 4th, 1995. For him.
