My words will fail me. More importantly, they will fail you. The inability to capture and express my words will fall short because the love I feel becomes too great. My wish for you is to know how much joy you brought me, dad and your big brothers this past year. It went by fast (they always warn you of this). But it was different this time. You made me want to hit pause rather than fast forward. You made me trust myself more as a woman and mother. You challenged me to let go and follow your lead.

So as I reminisce through the daily, weekly and monthly photos, I understand it was you who made us all grow . Happy 1st Birthday, George Karabatsos.

For the past four weeks, I have made it a priority to get him out into the fresh air for a walk and for me to feel like there is a world that exists outside the walls of our townhome. And for the most part, I think I have done a good job of getting out---whether it be to visit our favorite place, Hy-Vee or to meet friends for lunch. This has helped me tremendously---so thank you to all of you who have met up with me and to meet our little man! It has been awile since I blogged and quite honestly---it has been because I have been feeling overwhelmed, disappointed and of course---busy. I think from the get-go I have been disappointed with myself when it came to the breastfeeding thing and now the pumping has literally taken over my life. Hence--feeling overwhelmed. It is alot.
