Baby Of Mine

Jul 26



Indiana Colin


Dear Colin,

Happy 7th Birthday!  July 26, 2001 you were born.  Daddy and I were so excited to have you.  You make our lives exciting.  There is never a dull moment with you.  You always bring a smile to my face.  You have always loved listening to Alison Krauss.  Daddy and I went to see her in concert when you were still in my tummy, and I think you danced the whole time!  This was your favorite song.  I used to sing it to you as I rocked you to sleep.  I can still picture it in my mind.   You have gotten so big, but you’ll always be my baby – baby o’ mine.

Mommy

This video is of Colin at about 3 months old.  You can see his daddy is smitten.  He wasn’t the only one.

I'm one sassy southern Mama who loves Jesus and isn't afraid to shout it. My passions are Jesus, my husband, my kids, and chocolate. I'm a teacher turned Christian writer. Ask me why I love Jesus and be prepared to sit a spell. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and soul, but don't forget to love your neighbor as yourself. I am a firm believer that we can change the world one person at a time - by being Christ with the skin on to those who are in need. Are you a sheep or a goat?

    Happy Birthday to your sweet boy and to the Mama that birthed him! My son is really into Indiana Jones right now too. Who would picture Indiana Jones missing his two front teeth? LOL There is nothing like living with a little boy! God is so good to have given us these blessings.

    Happy Birthday, Colin! What a VERY SWEET video–it was extra special to me since I didn’t know you that well when he was born, and didn’t remember those early days. He was such a cutie then . . . AND NOW!

    Love it!
