Six Years Old!

It was October of 2000 when we found out we were expecting our first child. This child had been prayed for for many years and we were thrilled! I was in my second year of teaching and those first months were tough because I was SO tired all the time. Luckily my "morning" sickness started at about 4:30 pm everyday, so I was able to get my work done and be home by the time the nauseousness started for the night. It was pretty miserable for the first 4 months and then I felt WONDERFUL and enjoyed the rest of my pregnancy. My actual due date was July 24th so when I woke up at 2:30 am on July 14th with contractions I could hardly believe it. Robb and I were so excited we were giddy! We waited until about 7:00 am to go into the hospital and sure enough today was the day! About 5 and 1/2 hours later little Hunter Ron entered the world at 6lbs 13 oz. Of course we thought he was beautiful and I was completely in love with this little person. Now at 6 years old Hunter is a very smart, imaginative, creative, loves the Lord kind of guy! If you know Hunter he asks A LOT of questions and is really concerned about everything! Looking past the aggressive all-boy behaviors, he has a very tender heart and really wants to make the world a better place. He is the boy who vows to visit his mom EVERY day when he is a man. I love my first born son and couldn't be more proud of him! Happy Birthday Hunter! (I will post birthday party pictures tomorrow)
