Do you remember what you were doing during the last presidential election? I do, my first grandson, child of my firstborn was pushing his way into the world!!! Just as the current election will make history...the prior election was an historical event for our family! It was the first time I actually stayed awake and watched election returns sitting/dozing in a chair while my daughter labored all through the night! As she pushed and breathed, I placed cool cloths on her head...Kevin was in the room somewhere awaiting the birth. It was a long night and an even longer delivery...I was exhausted! I realized that I had been holding my breath every time Michelle "pushed". My first born was born prematurely with an emergency c-section...she and I were grateful to be alive for THIS day in our personal history! Thank you Kevin and Michelle for allowing me to witness this miracle!

What a beautiful little boy! And ALL boy from the looks of things!
Connie, I remember you saying before that you wanted to learn to play drums. Well, go for it, girl! The local music store should have someone giving lessons! I have to admit I was never any good on a set, I played in the school band for years, so I played a lot of different percussion instruments but not all at the same time like a set. My fav is snare, and that is what I play now, just for fun.
What a great tribute! How nice of you not to put in the part where you smothered me and I smacked your hand!!!! LOL
Connie~ come on now....you tried to smother Michelle! LOL
I am just kidding.....Happy Birthday to Hunter. What a cool motorcycle!
I did NOT try to smother her...she is claustrophobic like her MOM!!!
The photographs are just lovely!
Hunter looks pretty pleased with all of the attention!
:o)
I love birthdays...I love birthday cake more.
Many happy returns Hunter.
"my first grandson, child of my firstborn was pushing his way into the world!!!"
WOW. He has impeccable timing!
P.S. Chris's mom gave me a hat loom, so I am IN BUSINESS. This is so much more exciting then trying to make those hats the other way.
Thanks Daffy!
Hayden, the loom is a WONDERFUL thing!
Wow! It doesn't seem possible that this little blond slugger is already four! Between us, I think he looks more like his grandmother everyday.
Happy Birtdhay Hunter. I love the motorcycle - I had one as a kid and I loved it. He will have many hours of fun!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HUNTER! AND great job Michelle!! You have the most beautiful family. Wishing you all the BEST!
PS: Enjoy the cake, but don't forget to VOTE!! (NOT THAT YOU WOULD)
xoxo
