Happy 15th Birthday, Zachary!!


Fifteen years ago today, my life changed in a way like no other!  I became a mother for the first time in my life...to this little bundle of joy that I waited 8 long years for!!  Zachary was the baby that I prayed for and dreamed about....and it was a dream come true!!  But as you can see, alot happens in fifteen years!  My baby is no longer a baby...he is, in fact, almost a young man that will be no longer need Mom for little things, like driving him to school or helping him decide what to wear to church.  And although, sometimes the little things like that may get on my nerves....I get sad thinking about him not needing me anymore!!  Zachary is growing up to be everything I ever imagined him to be!  He is so smart, good-looking and just an all around great boy!!  He loves God and I pray that his love for God only grows and that he will allow God to guide him in every choice he makes for his future...and I know that if he does that, there is no telling what the future will hold for him!!  I am one proud Momma!!  I love Zachary with my whole heart and I pray that God will keep His hand on Zachary and bless him abundantly!!  Happy birthday Zachary!!!

Happy 8th Birthday Zane!!!



Eight years ago today, my life changed for the better.  The change was on September 3, 2002, when I gave birth to the sweetest little baby ever....Zane Connor Smith. And before this big change, I thought my life was pretty much perfect.  Yet this little baby that entered my life has only made my life even better than I could have ever imagined.  But my baby is not so much a baby any more, and that makes me sad.  I know he has to grow up but why does it have to happen so fast?  I guess that's not for me to know nor understand...but the one thing I do understand is that I have been so blessed to have Zane in my life for 8 years now!  He is such a joy to our family and he is always so full of life and so full of energy!  Always ready for fun and excitement!  There is never a dull moment with him and that's what so amazing about him!  I love Zane with my whole heart and my only wish for this birthday is that God will keep His hand upon Zane's life and bless him abundantly!  Happy birthday sweetheart!!
