I'm a mess!
I'm a mess!
I'm a big, old messy mess!
From Laurie Berkner's song "I'm a Mess!"
Ever since I first heard it, I've considered that Nick's theme song.
As his daddy likes to say, he's about as subtle as a train wreck.
Our family's been on that train for five years now and it's been quite a ride. I never saw a little boy who's so outgoing, fun-loving, imaginative, whip-smart, hilarious, sensitive, sweet and so gosh darn cute all at once! I know the rest of you think your kids are all that, too, but as I said Wednesday, this one's different, he's special -- he's mine!
He and Vivian are really close. I've always called them the Bobbsey twins or Frick and Frack. Nick really looks up to his big sister and I hope they always get along so well. I can also tell Nick will be a good big brother to Olivia. A few weeks ago we were headed to a Mardi Gras parade and I said Olivia wasn't going because I was afraid she would get hit by beads. Nick assured me that if any beads came her way, he would step in front of her so they hit him instead. Too sweet!
So happy birthday to my little man! Just remember if anyone picks on either of your sisters, punch 'em in the nose! But please son be gentle with the pets. The cat doesn't like to be held all the time, and if he scratches you trying to get away, you have to just suck it up and move on.
And when daddy hurts your feelings and breaks your heart by fussing at you, it breaks my heart too, but being tougher on you now will make you a better man down the road... and I can't wait to see how you turn out.
I love you -- Mommy
