I’ve been busy working on a wedding and a senior session for you guys to see, but I have to take a break today…because it’s my son’s birthday!  Breckin (aka: Mr. Bean) is 1 today.  It seems silly to tell you how much I love him.  He’s my son!  Of course I love him.  But I really do.  I love that his favorite game is peek-a-boo.  I love that he has his dad’s eyes and his mom’s nose.  I love that his ears stick out the perfect amount from his head.  I love that his hair always stands straight up.  I could go on and on and on.  As a beginning teacher, it was no secret that I often struggled with boy students and discipline.  There might have been one or 2 girls who were a challenge, but really, it was always the boys in those first years.  I struggled to no end with the usual suspects, the class clowns…you know the type.  So, when I got the news that I was going to have a boy…I was worried.  I was worried that my son would be one of those boys…the kind that is popular, outgoing, a little bit of trouble, and tough to discipline.  I think it’s safe to say that this little guy probably is going to be all of those things, but I think it makes me love him more.

Happy birthday, Mr. Bean!  Your family loves you SO much.

If you’d like to tell Breckin happy birthday, leave a comment.  I’ll be sure to pass along the message!  :)
