3 years old 💙💘🙈😭👼🏼 - Amy Davidson

Lennox will be three years old on Friday. I’m pretty much starting to lose it. We’ve been to birthday parties almost every weekend and I watch these little ones celebrate being on earth for three years and it’s really so fun! So enjoyable! Every party has been so charming for both the kids AND the adults, and I think one by one I’ve been silently dreading the fact that Lennox’s birthday was creeping up on me. Way. Too. Quickly!!! I know I say this all the time, and I can imagine many of you parents do as well, but how in the world has three years flown by?! It continues to blow my mind!

I’ve shared with you my challenges of staying positive and not sliding into the easier negative path, and let me just say this one is a biggie for me! To not get all fearful and sad and miss the days when Lennox was itty bitty is not the natural route for me. I’d usually sit in a puddle of tears and ball my eyes out- and lets be honest, I probably will! But this time I am at least aware of the emotions I’m feeling and I’m doing all that I can so they don’t get the best of me. It is such a joy and a privilege to watch my son grow year-by-year, and I do not take it lightly or for granted. I’m so honored to be a parent, to be Lennox’s mommy, so I’ll take all the worrying, the heartache AND all the extraordinary moments with an enormous and grateful heart!
