There are times when it seems that only yesterday, my little Goo was a baby and I was overwhelmed with going from two kids to three. Then there are other times that it seems we’ve had this sweet little boy in our lives forever, and we can’t remember what it was like before he was here. It’s his birthday today. He’s five. My baby boy is five.
Goo, I love you. Happy, happy birthday. You were a surprise to us, but God knew just what He was doing. You make me smile every day, and I love you so much.

Happy 5th, Goo! I can’t remember the exact name, but Jamie Lee Curtis wrote a book about the tough life of a 5-year-old.
