Ben at 13 | Sometimes the words just won’t do.

Words aren’t doing this justice.  The feelings are all up in my face.

So I search for photos.

And oh how the photos make the feelings overflow!

So on this day…when words aren’t going to do this day justice, I will celebrate him with photos.

I just can’t deny the passing of time.  I can’t stop it.  Nor, do I really want to stop it.

I just want so desperately to slow it down.  

No one tells you when they hand you that new life in your arms that it will all be SO incredibly good.

That it will run so deep that sometimes you won’t be able to breathe.

Today I will celebrate him through photographs…because it’s all I can muster up without turning into a hot mess.

Happy 13th Birthday to the human who turned my world upside down when he was born.  He made me a MOM!

You are the most brave, strong, smart, and kind hearted boy I know.

I am the lucky one.
