well, it's happened...

I now have a ring on my finger and not just any ring, my grandmothers engagement ring promised to me years ago for me to have when I met and fell in love with what was to be my man.  And now I have fallen in love with an incredible man that asked me to share his life with him and who has chosen to love Laszlo and I..... and of course I said YES!!!  

And this is how Laszlo thought it was done:  

Winter Days...

and now he is 8!

I think this picture says it all...he was a very happy boy that day seeing the room filled with balloons, his wonderful, fun, and yummy monkey cake that he and Jonte made, the party games played and lovely gift he received from all his friends.  And I was a mama that had a moment of "oh my, he's getting big.  I can't believe he's 8...I'm a mama of an 8 year old!" All in all it was a great day but I sure did have a tired boy after all that party time and a 6am wake up!
