Four years ago...

We were anxiously awaiting the birth of our long awaited first child. Tommorrow night, four years ago, at 10.40pm we met our beautiful son, Jack.
Four years on and I am filled with so many emotions. Our beautiful baby has grown into such an amazing little boy. He is outstandingly polite and so bright and funny. He's so affectionate and mostly gentle (apart from when he's being a Power Ranger or something similar). He loves to help me do everything, the housework, whatever craft I'm doing, cooking. He really loves to cook. He loves his family and his friends. He loves music and dancing and his new found favourite thing to do is play computer games. He's a chatterbox, a real chatterbox.
He's excited to be growing up. He was showing me tonight just how long his legs are getting. I love to see the changes in him, the way he learns so many things. He's already excited about going to school next year. I'm not too excited about that at all. I'm sure all mother's will understand. I'm going to miss him. He's my little mate and I love him.

So, my little man, Happy Birthday for tommorrow. I hope you have a great birthday.

Today, I've been party prepping, well in between helping Jack every 10 minutes with his new computer game. It took me forever but I made the cutest pirate cupcake toppers today and some of the decorations for his cake, plus finished off the papier mache on the pinata and started painting it. I've started making his daycare cake for tomorrow and will finish decorating it before bed tonight. Tomorrow night I'll finish off the pinata and then Saturday start baking for his party on Sunday.

I also did a digi LO this morning. And one last night.

I got an email tonight to say that my camera is still going to be weeks away!! Which SUCKS!! I was really hoping to have it back before Jack's birthday but it's my own fault for waiting so long before I sent it. I'm going to ask one of my friends if I can borrow her camera. My old point and shoot is driving me insane. I bought a new xd card the other day and it's corrupt already. The same thing happened with 3 of our old cards and the only card I have left, I've lost!!! Grrrrrrr. Anyhoo, it'll be fine, I'll work out something.
