And I shamelessly stole this picture from my sister-in-law's blog!
He just turned 4.
And I missed it.
I can deal with a lot of things being so far away from my family, but this has been hard. I have never missed his birthday before. William is such a special little man, he is so smart and kind and has such a beautiful nature. I have enjoyed watching him grow up, and I don't want to miss a thing. I feel sad that I have missed his birthday. Come to mention I am sad I missed my brother's birthday too.
Daniel's birthday is a couple of days after Will's. I don't think I have ever missed his birthday either.
Family is so important to me and I don't like missing out on the special occasions in their lives.
I guess I took for granted living so close to my family, and now I don't have that anymore. It isn't forever, I know that. At the right time we will move home. But for now this is where I am and I guess I will have to get used to missing out on the special things.
My greatest fear is that William will forget who his Aunty Kristin and Uncle Dave are. i know he wont because he is way too smart for that, but I fear it all the same.
One blessing is that mum and dad were up that weekend so I was still able to send a present home for William and Daniel.
Happy birthday to both of you. Love you both.
