there was a little guy making his way into this world. a little guy who couldn't wait another month before making his appearance. you can read a bit about his birth and see baby pictures of him here and some another birthday post here. he still moves through life on fast forward. except when he sits down to play legos or when he stands careful and still aiming at a target or when he is listening to a book or song that he loves. he's a boy of sharp contrasts. speed and slowness. loud crazy, goofiness and quiet contemplation. contagious, sparkling cheerfulness and a sharp, quick temper. he loves a wild wrestling match with his dad just as much as he loves to sit quietly and drink a cup of coffee. i am amazed by him every day.
happy birthday, dear isaac. happy birthday, to you.
