Well, yesterday my little JoJo turned 2 and instead of running around hyped up on sugar all day he took cat naps and walked around whining. Why? Because, he is very sick. Josiah has the same thing Isaiah had a couple weeks ago. 2 ear infections, 2 eye infections and a sinus infection. He is on antibiotics, but I can't give him yogurt because he is lactose intolerant and that would only make his tummy worse. He is a trooper and hung in long enough to open his presents!
It is actually almost fitting that he be sick on his birthday. Josiah had such a rocky start to this world, literately. For those of you who don't know, he got stuck under my pelvic bone during delivery. I'm not talking 'oh, gosh he is a little stuck and you need to give one really big push' stuck. I mean he was not budging and time was running down too quickly. I was giving it all I had and it wasn't enough to move him in any direction. When you see a look of fear on your Doctor's face during the birth of your third child, you know it is something not ordinary. She had to bring in 4 extra nurses to physically push Josiah out of me. It was a brutal way to come into the world no doubt, his collar bone was broken in the process, but it sure beats any alternative. I will gladly take a few colds here and there and on his birthday over the thought of something else. So, Happy Birthday to my little prince! I can't imagine the past two years without him!

What a cutey! And thank God, he is here to celebrate his 2nd birthday - infections and all! You and Adam are truly blessed with three beautiful young men.
