Where did the time go?? I feel like that I missed the baby stage, that I didn't fully appreciate it like I should have and that I didn't enjoy every moment like I wanted to. Those first years are a blink's moment in time.
He went from this....
I do feel guilty bawling and telling Coach how much I feel like I've missed and how worried I was for not spending more time with him and not basking in the moments of his babyhood...
Coach just held me and told me that I was overreacting and really just comforted me, not at all mentioning that for a YEAR he only experienced Big T through photos that I sent him!!
I may never get to experience a baby again, and I realize that I am very lucky to have even gotten to experience it once, but it still brings sadness with the thought that he is no baby, it is over.
On a better note....
Saturday we threw him a birthday party!! and I made him a cake....ALL BY MYSELF (with Coach's help :-) ).
It really doesn't look like much here:

It's starting to look like something...
