HaPpY bIrThDaY Broden UNO

Our little Broden Uno turned Uno today, so naturally, we celebrated with a fiesta party! It has been a whirlwind of a year, that went by almost too fast. Broden is such a wonderful little boy. I hate calling him easy, because every child has the challenges and strengths and I feel like it implies that Rilynn wasn’t easy, which isn’t fair to her. But, he has some wonderful strengths that have brought us so much joy and made life with 2 kids as easy as can be expected. He’s a great sleeper (in his dockatot), he isn’t easily upset (but once upset he can throw quite the tantrum), he loves exploring, snuggling, and rough housing with his sister.
Today was so fun, but also stressful, our 11 year old lab was very sick and rushed to the emergency vet clinic twice this weekend. Very bitter sweet, but we are hoping Josie pulls through this and comes home soon.
