It's birthday time!

It is birthday time in our household as our youngest reaches his 8th birthday. S loves any celebration, and even more so if it involves him receiving presents and being the centre of attention! He's been on our case for a digital camera for months.... today you can't wipe the smile from his face.

His proudest achievement on his birthday? He's now the same age as his sister - "twins," he says. And will be so for another three months. On the way to school he measured himself against the head rest and proudly announced how much he had grown.

S has come a long way from a very rocky start. I went to bed last night remembering the circumstances of his birth, the events of which are clearly imprinted in my brain.

So, at the age of 8, S is now 30 times his birthweight. Some achievement, huh? I'm not there yet (and hope I don't get to be!)
