Camden turned 12 on June 28th...

My big, beautiful baby boy. This was taken by a family member while I was still in recovery, before even I got to hold him. |
|
Just for fun... That's where that 11lb baby boy was hiding! |
12 years ago, my biggest dream was made reality. I became a mother. The two of us have been through so very much together. My life would not be what it is today without him. Every single day, I am thankful that God trusted me to care for this little guy that is all too quickly becoming a young man.

He's always had those big, beautiful eyes... |

My precious baby, who hasn't been a baby for quite a while now. |
Here are pics from his birthday party. Lucky kid had a party that lasted nearly two days...
We had a cookout Friday night, where he invited his three closest friends and their families. Boys were invited for a sleepover, and then we swam all day Saturday. It was a lot of fun! One of my favorite parts was when Camden opened his gift from me and Ryan. We couldn't give him the actual gift because it's a destination and won't take place until September, so we gave him a note with the information. After quickly reading it, his response was, "I don't get it..." It took him a few minutes, but he figured it out and was very, very excited.

Camden and Ryan are going to a Packer's game in September! |

My baby boy today, at his birthday party.
It blows my mind how quickly children grow up. |

Happy Birthday to Camden. Trying to remember how old he was when I first met him - four or five?
Connie - He was three when I started at Berea, so yeah...pretty young! He was just a little over 4 when I moved into the Ecovillage maybe? I'm trying to remember when exactly I moved in to remember if he was closer to 4 or 5 then...He turned 7 right after graduation. It's hard to believe it was that long ago, though!! And thanks for the bday wishes for him! :)
