On This Day...A Year Later

A year has gone by since I wrote the post titled, On This Day. This post is close to my heart since it's the story of the birth of my second son, Kyler, on April 20, 2006.

As we are about to celebrate his 4th year I'd like to share, with you, the story again. I have always loved reading and hearing birth stories but I especially relate to them since I have two of my own. I hope you enjoy reading one of mine.

    Spring's a great, happy time for a birthday! Your site looks lovely, especially with the yellow bouquets strewn about.

    Thanks for sharing this story; that was sweet. There are 5 years between my two as well and I struggled with ppd after the first but not the second. It really made a world of difference---I experienced feelings similar to those you describe here.

  7. Oh, Jackie, thank you so much for sharing about your little guys entry into the world! I loved reading about it and could totally relate because I delivered both of our children by C-section...the first one not planned, the second one planned. It felt so odd choosing the day our baby would be born.

    Loved the post!

  10. Lovely story and photos Jackie - I'm not a mum but I can appreciate the sentiments nonetheless. I was always an anxious aunt at the birth of my sis's children, if that counts!

    Happy Birthday Kyler!
