My Boy.

Happy Happy Birthday to my baby boy!! Today Silas turns 5. Today we celebrate Silas. His life. We are so honored to be HIS family. God is good. Last night I asked Silas what he wanted for breakfast. My other kids would say doughnuts or waffles or pancakes. Not Silas. Nope. He just wanted cereal. Not just any cereal but MOMS cereal. Yep. My cereal with bananas. He got it. He loved it. Life is good. Love that kid.

As I reflect on the last year I'm amazed at how much Silas has changed. How much we have changed. We can't wait to see what this year holds!

A walk through the past year.


First trip to Disneyland! Life on the beach!
And today he's changed SO much. A very well adjusted, active, sweet, loving boy that we are SO thankful to call son. We love you Silas Esubalew David Shubin!

Happy birthday to your beautiful little boy! I can't get over how much he's changed as well. He's so much bigger than his referral picture.

We can't get our finite hearts & minds completely around the joy of adoption...but it is a hoot wrapping up in as much of that joy as we can, isn't it? Happy Birthday Silas!
