My boy turned 7 today. SEVEN. How can it be seven years and 2 days since I first went into labour? Yes, you read that right; Maxi took a looooong time coming into the world.
He was probably too scared to come out.
That's my boy, a little bit scared of most things and absolutely petrified of sleep from day one. But each and every year he gets braver and sleepier and more and more gorgeous. He's just a bundle of yum. I am very surprised he made it to seven without his mother eating him all up.
So, this week I'm grateful for...
121. Moments - that moment when I first thunder-clapped eyes on my very first baby.
122. Enthusiasm - if there is one word I would use to describe Maxi at Seven, it would be 'enthusiasm'. It pours out of him like a stream.
123. Reading - and watching my child read his birthday card message all by himself.
PS - Some bike-loving dude won the People's Choice award over at the Sydney Writers' Centre. I can't compete with motorsports. Thanks for voting for me!
