Has anyone seen this little boy? His name is Jesse Adam Craig? He was born on February 18, 1983. He has brown hair, the most beautiful brown eyes, and when he smiles the corners of his eyes crinkle up. I love this little boy. I miss him.
Oh - I think I found him. When I wasn't looking he was stolen by a thief called "Time" who transformed my sweet little boy into this big man. He still has brown hair, the most beautiful brown eyes, and when he smiles the corners of his eyes crinkle up. What happened to my little boy? Where did he go? When did this "man" body take him over? I tried so hard to ward off "time" because I knew one day "it" would sneak in as it always does making everything a memory. I remember telling Jesse as I tucked him in at night, "sleep with a book on your head so you don't grow up - I love you just the way you are". However, despite my constant efforts - time won out.Now Jesse is a man. He is a husband and a father. I no longer tuck him in at night. He now does the tucking in of his sweet little twin daughters, Abby and Savannah. I am proud of the man Jesse has become, but in my heart I still hold the hand of a little boy with brown hair, the most beautiful brown eyes, and a smile that makes the corners of his eyes crinkle up.
Happy Birthday Jesse. I love you.

Too sweet!
This post seriously brought a tear to my eye. I have 4 children and last year we finally got our boy.Already as I think about him growing up and leaving home... getting his own family... it makes me kinda sad. I am trying to enjoy these years while he's small.
