I cannot believe that my "Little Bubbas" is FIVE today!! It seems like only yesterday he was born. He is such an amazing child. He's a thinker, creative and imaginative. He's a feeler, sensitive to the needs and feelings of others. He is BUSY, not as busy as my brother John was at this age, but BUSY none-the-less! Whenever something goes wrong in the house we know who to go looking for! He still LOVES to be rocked and his primary love language is TOUCH. I am so blessed that the Lord put this little bundle of joy in our lives. Last week I snapped at him and he said to me (with tears in his eyes), "Mom, I'm NOT a dog. You yell at dogs but you don't yell at kids." I'm glad that he feels safe enough to confront me when I hurt his feelings and that he has learned to offer forgiveness when I ask. Thank you, Lord for the last 5 years of knowing Josiah Wayne Burton. I pray that I have many more years ahead and that you give me the WISDOM in helping to train him up in your ways!
