It's been a while...and now I am 30!

So when I started this I thought that I was going to be able to be faithful enough to write daily or almost daily. I think that I lost that battle before I even started. It has been months since I wrote. Christmas has come and gone, a new year is upon us, and I am another year older. It is amazing how time seems to just get away from you.

Christmas this year was the best so far because Peyton was so enthusiastic about everything. He was so excited for Santa to come this year. He kept asking when it was going to be time. He unwrapped his presents like an old pro and then started to play immediately. Every time he would open something he would say, " Oh, my gosh!" Then he would move to the next and say it all over again. When he was done, he wanted Christmas to be here again the next day. We still have our tree up because he doesn't want to take it down.

My 30th Birthday was Friday. We went out last night and ate at Red Lobster with Amy, Bronson, and Ava. We had a good time. I got heart necklace from my boys. It is beautiful. Peyton picked it out one day when we were at Wal-Mart. About a week ago, I happened to show it to David when we were walking by.  Everybody that Peyton saw got to hear about my birthday and was told to tell his mama "Happy Birthday!" Strangers looked at us a little funny when Peyton was telling them this, but I thought that it was the sweetest thing ever. In fact, last weekend we were shopping and he was looking at the jewelry telling the store clerk that his mama's birthday was coming up and that he needed to pick me out some jewelry. I hope that he is always so thoughtful. This morning when we woke up, the first thing that he said to me was the I was the greatest mama in the whole world. There is nothing like waking up to my son. He is the greatest thing this world will ever see.
