Tomorrow is Griffin's 1st birthday, and to me, that marks the beginning of "big boy-hood." He's turning into quite the little adult. He's not too far from walking on his own, and his personality is starting to bloom. He's really goofy and quite the giggle box!
I can't believe how fast a year has gone by. This past year has been such a learning experience and a real test of faith at times. There is no doubt he is a blessing from The Lord. This little boy has taught me about a kind of love so big that I thought my little heart was incapable of holding. He's made me truly appreciate the little moments and helped me put that into action by learning to say no (that's still a work in progress ha). He's made me want to be a better person, a better wife, and a better mom. Though he's young, I pray that I've started to "train up a child" (Proverbs 22:6), that I've shown him Jesus through the way I live my life.
I know Griffin's life is just beginning, and while I'm a little sad that he's no longer an infant, I'm so excited to see him grow and develop into the young man God has designed him to be. Here's to year one, Griffin Ray! Happy Birthday Eve! I love you.
Stay tuned for a birthday party post with pictures! ☺️
