Grant's First Birthday

I honestly can't believe that Grant is one. Where has the year gone? He's not a baby anymore (especially now that he has two infant cousins that make him look like a big, grown-up giant). He's active, independent, creative, smart, active, ticklish, loving, active, bright, fun, and active. I recently cried at church for the first time since he was born because his energy made it impossible to listen (or for anyone else to), and because he refused to sleep when he was screaming from exhaustion. For the most part, however, his activity level is fun to see. He loves the world around him and everything in it! I have loved the chance I've had to be his mom.

We had another party for our family in Utah, but that will have to come later because it isn't scrapbooked yet...

My mom made up a tune to a song in a children's book, so as I write it, Grant, I'm singing it in my head:

I'll like you forever, I'll love you for always,
As long as I'm living, my baby you'll be.

I love you, my little baby Grant! Happy first birthday!
