rebekah and joshua made the muffins that we had for lincoln's birthday breakfast this morning. all by themselves!
we've totally cut out desserts for lincoln - so muffins for breakfast were the solution. i really think it's making a positive difference!
we sang happy birthday to him. i put down my camera and watched. he looked around at EVERY single person as they sang to him. i looked DEEP in his eyes when he looked at me, my eyes shining with JOY to celebrate HIM.
he loves to be the center of attention. so he is having a great day! we'll open a couple gifts tonight when pat gets home. lincoln is 5....{and, yes, there is a underlying current of grief to the day for me...for a mom somewhere that birthed him 5 years ago...that doesn't get to celebrate with him today. lots of prayers and questions to God about that...intertwined with the prayers of thankfulness and wonder that he is my son and in our family}

Happy Birthday Lincoln! How I've prayed for you this past year. It's great to see such a sweet smile on your face!
Happy 5th Birthday Lincoln!!!
Switching him to only whole grains - whole wheat, brown rice, whole wheat pasta, no dyes as well would prob help huge... if you are seeing good results in the no sugar. Jessica
