The Difference a Day Makes

Happy Birthday, Asher!!  This baby was the ultimate surprise for our family. He was an awesome little baby and he's growing everyday into a cool little kid. Asher turns 3 today. Yep, he was 2 yesterday and now things feel so different.

This day hit me kind of hard. Why am I so upset? Yesterday he was doing a lot of typical 2 year old stuff, but now it seems like he should be doing big boy stuff. It's easy to say to myself, "Well, he is ONLY 2." Nothing magical happened overnight to speed up his process of learning. This week he has started saying "lalalalalala." We were all pretty proud of that. That's babble though. I need words.

Asher doesn't qualify for his developmental therapy now that he's 3. We are trying to pick up another therapy to take its place. That's another evaluation and schedule, but we're ready. This has just been a really tough year for our family--lots of adjustments. We had a lot of joy too though.

This day is about Asher and we're going to spend it doing the things he loves. There will be plenty of snacks, mud, water, running, and loving. Bring it on year 3!!
