Andrew Kahlil, we are so much alike, it is insane! There are days where I can't keep my eyes off you and days where you drive me insane! I'll take both kinds of days, though because it's a blessing having you in my life.In a way, we've grown up together. You've really done a great job adapting to our life situtations. When I was in college, you hung in there going to daycare for 12 hours M-Th. You were great at slumber parties in mommy's bed because daddy worked the 2nd, sometimes 3rd shift. It's amazing how versatile children can be!
I remember how it was the coolest thing for you to get sick. We would make a pallet on the floor and let the TV watch us while we slept. When you were healthy, what an adventurous child you were! Then there was a time when you rode you Lil' Tikes Trike off the back of the couch! I can still picture you acting out the beginning credits to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air in your diaper!
Now that you are growing up, I frequently think about how our little family began. It all started with you, kiddo... Every day you help me learn something new about myself. Patience, acceptance, understanding...

I enjoy playing games with Andrew. He is so competitive. My first grandson, he has had me wrapped around his finger from birth. He reminds me a lot of you, Kesha.
