Best Gift Ever!

Tomorrow is Andrew's big day - he turns the Big 0-1!  This afternoon the whole family decided to enjoy the fresh air, sunshine and fantastic weather to do a little gardening.  While Dustin was planting our onions and potatoes in the garden, Andrew and I were basking in the late afternoon sun.  All of a sudden, Andrew stood up, wobbled a little while he gained his balance, and took one...tiny...baby...step!  Then plopped back onto the blanket.  Unfortunately, Dustin was not close enough to see Andrew and he didn't do it again. 

Although I have no pictures to share with you of this milestone, the memory of my little boy taking his first step, outside with the sun shining down on him, will stay with me forever.  This is the best gift he could ever give me!
