To My Sweet Baby Chandler....



Happy 1st Birthday to my sweet baby boy. How can you possibly be a year old? Where has time gone? I know how many years my heart yearned for you in my life, but I had forgot how fast you would grow.

The journey started many years ago, I would say when Devon was about four years old. I wanted another child so bad, but at the time in our life we knew we could not take on another child so we gave it a couple more years, and then a more years past. We decided that we could not have you, then my mid-wife told me I need to see Dr. Thatcher in Johnson City, TN if we really wanted to have another child, he is a endocrinologist. So Daddy and Mommy went for a visit, and Mommy found out that she has a condition called PCOS, but Dr. Thatcher told Mommy he thought he could help with medicine. Time passed and before I knew it I was prego with you. We were so happy, Devon was so excited that he was going to be a big brother. We bought him a shirt to spread the news to all the family Christmas of '07. The family could not believe it because really none of them knew we where even trying for a little one.

Then you where born, July 29 2008. What a great day it was and how happy you made us that day and always will. It's amazing to watch you grow and learn so much. It's amazing to see the bond between you and Devon growing each day. I know you are 9 years and a couple weeks apart, but I know there is love there. The brotherly love that I hope you can always share.

Thank you Chandler for being part of our life. We would not trade one moment with out you.We wish for you the best in life, to always be happy in everything that you do.

Happy Birthday our little man. We love you so much Chan!!! It has been such a wonderful year having you here with us during the week. We are going to miss you, but I already told mommy we would steal you away on weekends so mommy and daddy can have time together.

The girls loved being there with you for your birthday evening and Ms. Jen loved being with you as well. You will always hold such a special place in my heart and I'll always be your Ms. Jen.

We LOVE YOU!!!
