Tomorrow, Isaac turns six years old. It's hard to believe that it's already been six years since we officially welcomed him to our family. It's hard to believe that almost exactly six years ago to the hour, Adam and I came home from a night out and I told our teenage baby-sitter Christin (who's now a teacher in the school district!) that I was in labor. And it's hardest to believe that tomorrow, Isaac will officially be older than his older brother got to be in this lifetime. Yeah, that's definitely the hardest pill to swallow. But still, it will be a good day; a day to be thankful.
Today, we celebrated Isaac's big day with Adam's family. The evening began with Abby swinging on the play structure and the Little Boys running wild and free with bubble wands. There was something freeing about watching them giggle as they chased the bubbles around the yard. Brady in particular threw his entire body into the experience, whirling and twirling and whirling some more as he proclaimed himself a ninja.
A nice evening it was. And a blessing indeed.
