In 2010 I started this blog, at the urging of my running buddy, Carol, as Meredith was heading off to college and this would help channel my thoughts, my fears, my love of fashion, handbags, shoes and accessories and help fill my “free time”. Nine years later, I never dreamed I’d still be blogging, but also, that my youngest, the baby of the family, my favorite son, Meredith and Maxie’s brother, would be graduating from college. I mean, Oh. My. God. #BasketCase

In lieu of a baby book, I get to blog and post these pictures for all to see, but most importantly, for Sonny Bunny to see and hopefully one day, he can share this will children of his own. He may not see, or not see now, but I’ll make sure he takes a gander. And I will look back on this blog, like I look back on the blog I wrote about Meredith A Girl Graduates From College and like I look back on the 2016 Cubs World Series Compilation, as bookmarks on my computer, as a bookmark of Patrick’s life. As Tracy says, “the lazy mom’s baby book”. I mean, We are graduating from college!! I mean, Oh. My. God. #BasketCase

22 Years in Review

Dear Patrick – I love you with every bit of my heart. You make me proud every day. I will never not worry about you, because you are my Sonny Bunny. Having your whole life ahead of you if a gift and a privilege, do great things. Do good things. Be happy. Soar your wings. The world is your oyster. You can do and achieve anything you choose. Choose wisely. Choose well. I can’t wait to see what we are going to do next! 😉

Song of the Day – Beautiful World – Jim Brinkman – Live Version

An oldie by goodie.

Your winter skin warming in the summer sun
We know within you will stay forever young
You fell asleep under the starlit sea
It’s time to wake up

The moon is high above you
We’re all here ’cause we love you
And when you finally open your eyes and ears
You’ll see and you’ll hear us singing

Love you honey,

Mom
