Macsen is 6!!!

We had such a fun trip to Gulf state park for Macsen’s birthday ❤️ We love that place - the beach, the pool and miles of bike trails. He loves Lambert’s restaurant - their thrown rolls and endless fried okra- so we ate there for lunch Saturday. Other birthday requests we were able to fulfill - night crab hunting, soggy nachos by the pool,bike rides, kids "champagne" and  ice cream cake (he was not a fan of the cake lol.) We saw 2 snakes - one slithered over his sisters foot in the shower 😳 I feel so blessed we were able to celebrate his 6th birthday together doing things we love. 6 years ago we weren't sure if we would get a moment to hold him, if we would ever hear his voice or know his favorite color. If we would ever know if he was a cuddler or preferred his space (he is entirely the former.) We have had 6 precious years full of firsts, full of miracles, full of prayers and tears and fear and stress and magic and love. Every moment so much more precious because we never knew if we would have any time with him and conscious that we don't want to forget anything because memories of these moments may have to  sustain us if he leaves us too soon.
