When Hayden was a baby, he of course being my first born, was expected to reach all the milestones in his life ahead of everyone else; he was expected to be in the top percentiles for height and weight; he was expected to behave; he was expected to speak, know his colors, his address, (all by the age of 1), there were so many expectations for him. My Grandma kept telling me to let him be a baby, because it would only happen once. Oh why didn't I listen to her?
Tomorrow is already his 6th birthday. He will be going to 1st grade this year, he has already lost two teeth, he's probably smarter than me (don't tell him I said that), he can do just about everything by himself. He almost doesn't need me anymore. It makes me so sad.
I love Hayden will all my heart. I have learned so much from him. I have had so much fun with him. I am so proud and grateful to be able to be his mother. Most of the time I don't feel like a deserve such a wonderful son. I hope that I can be the best mother to him, and be the kind of mother he deserves.
Happy Birthday Haydee!!!! I love you!!!
check out my slide show for him--I'm still new to it, so I'm not sure how to make it just show up here.

I loved the video. I especially loved it when Savannah sat on my lap and asked "Is that Hayden?" every time a picture of Hayden came up. That brought back so many memories of when I used to babysit Hayden "back in the day." We sure do love our little Haydee.
