Fast forward through several barf bags, 47 cheese & cracker packets, an overnight stay in the hospital due to early contractions, 10 gallons of Mylanta, and a broken toe..... and finally the day arrived.
It was 10 years ago this very night. I had labored all day at the hospital. I pushed for 3 hours. THREE HOURS! At last they decided to yank you out with that blessed pair of tongs. You were bright purple, but perfect. You had black Elvis-hair, sideburns and everything. I was in love. I was a mommy! You were born in the middle of "Survivor" so Daddy had to quickly turn on the TV to see who was voted off in tribal council.
Vrrrooom!
That was the sound of 10 years flashing before my eyes. Now you can experience the same:
Birth
6 months
1 year
2 years
3 years
4 years
5 years
6 years
7 years
8 years
9 years
10 years
Happy Birthday my Mitchell Man!!!

SERIOUSLY. Cannot believe he's 10.
TEN.
I looked at all those pictures thinking "I remember him at that age; that wasn't too long ago, was it?!" Amazing.
I hope the next 10 years slow down a little, but I hear they just get faster!
Holy cow! 10 years old!! Happy Birthday Mitchell. I hope it was a great day for you!
(p.s. I didn't know you taught 9th grade English! You're my hero!)
What a cute kid. Are you sure that six month picture isn't of Cooper? Ha ha. :)
Happy Birthday Mitchell. It looked like the greatest growth was around 8 years old. All of a sudden he looked so much older. That might be Tucker this year!
Aw cute! Time goes by almost too fast sometimes. I swear Mitchell and Cooper are twins. :)
So handsome! I can't believe my children are over 10. haha! But it is hard to believe the time has gone so quickly. LU all.
