celebratin' yo yo!

he's gonna be twenty.
twenty.
i can't believe it.

and still....i gotta paint that birthday sign.
you know.....the happy birthday yo yo sign.
yeah, maybe it's time to stop....
but then again....

tomorrow morning, just after 9:00 marks yo's
comin' into the world. memories of the midwife,
his dad was a heck of a great coach, the whole
thing....right there in my head tonite. it was
so so good.

but it's mostly yo that's in my head.

he's one of the most gentle, loving people i've
ever met. everything you could ever want your
son to be.

when he was little he was really really blonde
and so gentle, he made you think of an elf.
he still reminds me of an elf. a huge big ol' elf.

there will be celebrating tomorrow and some major
goofin' off together. he and i have plans to play
with his camera together. and i'm sure there's gonna
be a ton of eating.

i'll try to refrain from pullin' out the baby pictures
or talkin' about my little baby boy!

but you know darn well.......i'll be thinking of that
little baby all day and seein' him in this young man's
face.

celebratin' yo....and his being here with us.

he adds more than he'll ever know!
