Happy Birthday Sweet Erik!

When I first started thinking of Erik's 5th birthday it would make me cry, because I imagined him going to kindergarten, but then I remembered that had he been born near his due date he would be four and entering kinder in 2019. It still made me sad knowing that it had been five years. That seems like such a long time. Mike was still in Oklahoma, and we wanted to wait for him to "celebrate", so the kids and I grabbed lunch and read under his tree for a little while. It's always nice to just be there and feel at peace. I worried that having Audrey would overshadow Erik, but it hasn't at all. We all love and miss him and wait until he's back.
