Happy Birthday Elijah!

It has been a long time since I blogged last but what a great day to return! Today my baby turned 18 years old! Can that be true? Can it really have been 18 years ago today that I delivered this boy in an ambulance on the side of the road? Ummmm...excuse me....do you think you could pull this squad over? This baby is coming on it's own and there is nothing I can do about it!! And that he did...1...2...3.....baby delivered. On a beautiful fall day in front of Henry's Market! I'll never forget the squad driver calling JW over the radio and telling them that the "eagle had landed!"

And look at him now.............................love this boy! Should have named him "Henry"

What an awesome birth story! Somehow that seems fitting for his entrance into the world. Nothing seems to hold him back! And Elijah is a way better name than Henry.

Congratulations on this milestone in your lives. E is a wonderful young man.
