Good morning!!
Check back after noon to see today's card.....we made some awesome cards last night at the Shoebox Swap and I'm going to share one of them with you. The lighting isn't the best at night so I'll take a good picture when it's daylight.
In the meantime....It's hard to believe that exactly 16 years ago today.....at this very moment 5:45am.... Chase was born. Since I've shared some of his art with you over the past few months...I thought it would be fun to show you a picture or two :)
I'm showing two pictures.....he and I just a few hours after he was born and the 2nd one is from a couple days ago.
Here's a funny story for ya....Brook was taking our picture and I was so darn short that I had to run across the room to get my shoes that make me at least 2 or 3 inches taller...hence the reason for the smirk on my face & the smile on Chase's. My head actually comes to his shoulder..... I can't believe I'm so short or he's so tall :)
See ya!

Oh my goodness....I can't believe how time goes by! There are always those moments you wish you could hang onto forever - like that very first day you hold them. 16 is a milestone - Happy Birthday, Chase :)

I know what you mean about being short (5'3"). I never felt short until my 2 boys became teenagers that have now surpassed me in height ...one over 6' the other near 6' and still growing. Happy bithhday to Chase.

Oh my gosh!!!
I was scrolling down your blog and ran across this post and had to read it. I, too, have a son, Chase, aka: "Chaser" that just turned 16 years old on the 10th of November :)
Just had to post and tell you :)
