Drew Turned FIVE!

My sweet Drew-boy is growing up way to fast!  I still remember the LONG 8 yrs it took to hold him in my arms.  During that LOW valley in our lives I truly thought we may never have a child of our own. After many years of clomid, metformin, ultrasounds, a miscarriage, and 2 surgeries we got the best news of our lives... and 9 months later on Nov 26th, 2007 we welcomed our 9lb 2oz boy, Andrew Charles!! He is now 5, and I am continued to be amazed at him, especially his love for Zach, how his brain works, and his tender heart.  He is such a bright, quick witted young man!  He has such a great mix of David and me..  He has really showed signs of loving artistic things this year. I have been amazed at some of his drawings. I will be interested to see how that pans out through the years.

This past year has been a little tough as he has gone through a very shy and scared stage.  I have to admit at first it was really hard for me to understand because he was never a shy kid.  When he started preschool this past fall it took him about 2 months to feel somewhat comfortable.  It broke my heart when his beyond awesome teacher said he was almost having a panic attack.   This is where I PRAISE his teacher and the time she took with him, pushing and loving on him.  It is still a work in progress and we continue to pray for the best approach for him.  We Love him sooo much!!

Enjoy some pics of his 5th Birthday (held on Dec 2, 2012)..
