I love this guy! 🙂

How in the world did this happen?  One day I’m staying up all night with marathon nursing sessions.  Then when I finally go to sleep I wake up and he’s running into his classroom without so much as an afterthought glance in my direction!  Ok ok maybe it didn’t happen EXACTLY like that, but some days it seems like it!  Fortunately for us, we’ve been blessed to have shared hundreds upon thousands of wonderful memories with our little Cragbaby these past three years, who most CERTAINLY has graduated to Crag-Kiddo status at this point! 

Lightning McQueen!

I’ve been doing a lot of reflection recently about how precious and fleeting life can be, as well as why we have chosen the lifestyle that we have for our family.  You can go back and read those posts here and here if you’d like, but I’d like to keep today’s post short, light, and sweet so I can spend the whole day celebrating with my little man!  After all you only turn 3 once…and besides, we’ve got 18 more Lightning McQueen cupcakes to pass out to friends today! 

In addition to the Crag-Kiddo’s birthday, today is also special because it marks the first day of spring!  And I say bring it on!  What special fun is YOUR family cooking up this spring?
