Its been a long time

Or, Once Upon a Time, this little guy showed up and changed our world! 

He delights my heart. 

He is over a year old now, and Momma is back to work. Which leaves me, Grandma, doing the majority of Small boy minding. If you have ever chased a toddler around, you know this is a young woman's job!! My heart is full, but my body is tired. I do manage to squeeze in a bit of scrapbooking on my days off.

He has overcome some obstacles. We feel extremely lucky to live in the time we do. With early medical intervention, he will be okay after all. 

Side note: If you ever see a baby with two full casts on. This is not an injury caused by someone. This is a medical treatment for Talipes Equinovarus. It takes a lot of dedication and diligence from his momma and anyone caring for him. 

Casts, an operation, then braces for years.
