My Boy!
100 things are not enough to describe how much you have enriched our family. Your amazing and make me so happy. I can't wait until you're old enough to look back and read these things abou yourself.

Audrey said...

That was such a great list. Love it.
Although I must say that I don't think number 44 or 62 should count! haha
Devin does have the sweetest eyes. He is beautiful. We need more pictures of him please.

Unknown said...

What a list.. So funny and sweet! How can that peaceful face be such a screamer? How?? Gotta see it to believe it I guess.
What a lucky boy! And even luckier parents..

Kaili said...

Awww, I LOVED that, and even brought some tears to my eyes. He was what you needed and I am thankful for you that you have him and that you didn't end up in that dark dark place. You are a great Mama and those boys are lucky.
Okay, so when can we meet Devin boy? Your Dad would have LOVED him SOOO much!

Sonia said...

What a wonderful list! Your boys are so lucky to have you and vice versa. :)

Audrey said...

Kaili, your comment made me tear up. Jeesh...thanks a lot. My dad would have loved him a lot...that's true.
