5 Minute Friday x2

Last Friday I was headed to Washington to attend one of my oldest and dearest friends wedding in a teeny tiny little town in Washington. Not only was the time with our other childhood friend and her family awesome, the cool weather and fog was heavenly. I missed my family very much and had a couple hiccups travelling west but it was definitely worth it. I may have gotten a little teary when the southern California coast line was in view :( This Friday I got up when the moon was still high to get my birthday boy Round Rock donuts, per his request. He is still peacefully sleeping in his new big kid bed and I can't wait for him to wake up. Of course I am the sentimental sappy mom today and I don't care about much else today besides seeing him smile. We had some sad news to tell him this week and once again he showed us his incredibly loving heart. I am so grateful to be his mama. I had no idea what to expect holding a baby boy in my arms five years ago and I still don't, but I do know that I have a treasure in that little boy that could never be replaced, that I don't deserve, that surprises me all the time, and that I would go to the ends of the earth for in a heartbeat. We love Rylan James as a big as Texas. Moochies and a shaka dude!
