6 years ago today I became a mother. Abram was born 7 lbs 6 oz and 18 1/2 inches long at 10:04 am, on Luis' birthday! It was the most exhilarating and life altering day I had ever had. I held Abram for the first time and all I saw was perfection. I cried, like most first time moms do, and I remember thinking I wanted to give him all my love, all my attention, and bombard him with cuddles and kisses! I wanted time to stop and just be in that moment of pure bliss. I know it sounds sappy, but it really was such a beautiful day. I was so glad to give Luis his first born as a gift to him on his birthday, which was totally unplanned by the way. We became parents of a wonderful boy that day and his life has been such a blessing to us.
Luis and Abram quickly developed a special bond. Abram was such a daddy's boy from the beginning, and no matter how tired Luis is he always finds the time to play with Abram everyday.
He grew up so fast!

Happy Birthday to 2 of my favorite people in the world. You both show me daily what love is all about. I strive to be a better person for you two. I couldn't imagine this world without the two of you. You are both so special. I love you with all my heart!
