Gavin is three today.
It is hard to believe he has only been in our lives three short years. In those three years, he has turned our lives inside out and and upside down, in a good way. Beyond good. In a way that I can’t even put into words.
What did we do with our time before kids? When have I ever loved so fiercely? When has another person ever met so much to me? God’s love for me has become so much clearer after having children. I have something to relate it to. God loves me like his child. More then I love my own child. That is crazy awesome, because that is a whole lot of love, my little human brain can’t even wrap itself around that. That love is bigger then the love I have for Gavin and that is some big, BIG, love.
Cool thing is God loves you that much too. Seriously.
So yes, the cliches are true, having children changes everything. Everything.
Some moments from G’s first three years.
Happy Birthday little man, you have changed my life in such a big, happy way!
Happy Birthday, Gavin!! He’s such a beautiful boy, Leah. And I agree – that’s a whole lot a love!
Words fail me. Thanks for posting. I love all of you.

Ha ha, Karis…my first reaction was, how much are plane tickets? then I remembered I have school
I love the collages! It’s amazing to see how much he has changed, and also how much has stayed the same.
