Jace is Another Year Older! (tomorrow!)

To watch your family enjoy you Jace...is a treat!
Holy Moly you've got your work cut out for you!


You and your dad, among so many women!
You'll learn-and by golly I think you already have- how to milk this gift of being in the minority, for all its worth.
I stumbled across a sweet verse that conjured up in my mind just how it is at your house with you as the center of the universe.

"What are you good for, my brave little
man?
Answer that question for me, if you can,-
You, with your fingers as white as a nun,-
You, with your ringlets as bright as the sun.
All the day long, with your busy contriving,
Into all mischief and fun you are driving;
See if your wise little noodle can tell
What you are good for. Now ponder it well."

Over the carpet the dear little feet
Came with a patter to climb on my seat;
Two merry eyes, full of frolic and glee,
Under their lashes looked up unto me;
Two little hands pressing soft on my face,
Drew me down close in a loving embrace;
Two rosy lips gave the answer so true,
"Good to love you, mamma, good to love you."

Happy Birthday!!!!
