#throwbackto’98
Just 339 days to go before this photo will have been taken a decade ago. Where in the world has the time gone, Ryan? It still seems so hard to believe that I will have a 20 year old. Stop growing, please!
This is definitely one of my favorite days, of my entire life. You came in with a bang, a month before you were supposed to. I guess you couldn’t wait any longer. On the 19th of December, I was just sitting at the table eating dinner and the next thing I know I am wet. I thought I had lost my bladder and peed myself. So I waddled to the bathroom, soon to realize the water leak wasn’t stopping. I asked Rich (your step-grandpa at the time) to call 911, and they kept telling him to tell me to get off the toilet and not to push! So off to the hospital we went.
19 and half hours later, a squalling baby weighing 7lb. 7 oz. was born. At 10:21 pm, on December 20, I gained a new title. The title of mom. One I hold dearly.
Ryan, you came along in a time in my life I needed something to ground me and make me grow up. I knew I had to get my crap together. I couldn’t be a mother and still messing life up. I had more than just myself to take care of now. And you, my handsome boy, were worth every obstacle and growth I experienced.
There will never be a day my love and pride for you subsides.
