HELLO!

HERE I AM!

HAPPY FRIDAY!

In case you’re wondering how I’m feeling about this weekend, lemme plop a little screenshot here for you.

Yes, that’s correct.

Chicago is coming alive.

THE SUN IS GIVING ME LIFE.

Today is April 12th.

It’s Ishu’s due date day. April 12, 2020 was our due date. But he decided to take his sweet ol’ time and then needed some urging to get out of mama’s comfy womb. It feels like so so long ago.

FOUR YEARS.

HAPPY ISHU DUE DATE DAY.

We’ve been going back and forth on whether we want to have a big celebration for him.

He’s our simple baby who gets so much joy out of anything and everything.

I asked him how he wanted to celebrate his birthday. Did he want to have a party? Did he want to see a special movie? Or did he want to go somewhere for the weekend, like the Great Wolf Lodge?

He listened to all the options and then said…

“I don’t know? Maybe we can…

….go climb a tree? Three times? Go to the park?”

Ha.

We’ll figure it out by the end of the weekend.

In the mean time, I’ll be over here, getting emotional as I scroll through all the old photos and videos of my BABY. Where does the time go? Seriously. One minute, his little body fits perfectly on your chest. And the next, you’re trying to figure out how the pants you bought last week are ALREADY TOO SHORT ON HIM.

I don’t understand.

But, hope you all celebrate Ishu’s Due Date day today. Maybe climb a tree? Three times?
