My Dream Maker

There is no joy in the world greater than having a child in my personal opinion. On October 22,2006 I gave birth to my first and only child (so far): at 3:47 pm at Jackson Hospital in Montgomery, Al. He was 5 lbs 2oz and 19 inches long. I truly believe that I haven't felt a joy quite like I did at 3:48 that day. It's a beautiful feeling to know that someone that you have waited on for 9 consecutive months has finally made an entrance into your world, and completely changes the way that you do things. Even better is the opportunity to watch them grow into little people that have their own ideas and ways of expressing them(ideas). The past two and a half years have been so fulfilling with my son, partner and lifelong friend to share lifes ups and downs with. He never ceases to amaze me with all the information that he obtains and applies to every day situations. His smile has the power to brighten up a day where everything else may be going wrong. And with him by my side, he serves as a constant reminder in the importance of me reaching for my goals and my dreams. Because I have learned that children do not learn by what you tell them, they learn by what you show them. It is my absolute goal in life to provide him with the best upbringing that I possibly can. Because he has transformed my whole life, and taught me to dream bigger, it is the least that I can do.
