It is hard to believe Matthew is a year old. One. My little boy. My baby, he is no longer a baby. He is a *gulp* toddler. He is toddling around and trying to be brave enough to go faster. He is growing up so quickly and it makes me a little sad.
Where has the time gone? Have I not taken the time to do enough to remember what he was like when he was and is this small? I wish I would have made videos and taken more pictures.
It makes me wonder what his older siblings would look like. And forces me to think about how old they would be. Our first loss was close to exactly 2 years to the date of when Matthew was born. Can I imagine having 2 under 2? No, but isn't that what we are hoping for now?
I got to dreaming about how wonderful it would be to surprise James on Christmas with good news of a healthy pregnancy. And I thought to myself this is not possible because it has been a bust with James being sick. And I felt this small voice say to me, impossible? Is ANYTHING Impossible with me? And I felt (Ok feel...) this hope and wonder of possibilities.
Nothing is impossible.
Matthew is all the proof we need.

Happy Birthday Matthew!!! He is so handsome!!
