it's a birthday
Did it fly by? Nah. But I am surprised to find myself living with a five year old who corrects my grammar, critiques my cooking and occasionally offers a spectacularly honest compliment like "mommy your arms are soft like bread." Though I prefer "I love you as much as the sky loves the clouds."
4 years and 364 days ago I was making rental arrangements for a villa in Umbria, never once contemplating that taking an infant to Italy might be beyond my capabilities as a new parent. It wasn't. Yet five years later I wouldn't have the nerve. That's the beautiful thing about this whole adventure: you just never know. Happy birthday my love.
