It's Your Birthday

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

As a parent, there really are no words that can explain the love for a child and the love from a child. He has changed my life. He has grounded me. He has been the source of boundless joy and immeasurable pain. He has struggled. I have struggled. Yet our lives are so blessed in so many ways.

From helpless infant to independent teen. Look closely at the car pic. I was quite surprised to find that one on the camera! Think he has grandiose dreams?

And I think I was quite successful in finding one or two embarrassing photos!



I happened upon these videos when I downloaded the camera yesterday. The rap? *shakes head* But I do love listening to him playing the keyboard!

Happy birthday young man!

And good luck to his momma, now *officially* the parent of a teenager!

[And isn't that why we take silly pictures of our children when they are young, to embarrass them with when they are older?]

Happy Birthday Cam!

I think that might be a boy thing, my mom found a video on her camera that my brother made except he was lip-synching to Limp Bizkit, complete with red hat and everything. :-)

Love the look on his face when playing the keyboard. Such a beautiful baby and now a talented young man. Again...Happy Birthday, Cam. Have a great 13th year.

And "Good to see you come from behind the magic curtain"? NO KIDDING! It's tough, but it must be done. :)

Good luck to you and Cam on Cam's upcoming teen years. Keep Cam busy on positive activities and he will do just fine.

Happy Birthday, Cam!

My sound isn't working for some reason. I'll have to try again later so I can hear your baby rap. ;)

Happy Birthday, Cam! I have no idea what the hell he said in the rap, other than the double cheeseburger and crispy fries...the stuff inbetween?? No clue. Good thing I'm not the parent of a new teenager!

Happy Birthday to Cam!!

Cool slide show, love the second pic with the mohawk!!

I think where kids and parents are involved the struggles end up being blessings.

Happy Birthday to Cam!

Deep down, he's still a baby (well, okay, a child) in more areas than he wants to admit. And he's never too old to need you.
