Just Simply Holly

After being told for several years that I would never be able to have children I found out in the early summer of 1992 that I was pregnant with my eldest child. It was definitely one of the biggest shocks that I ever received in my life, but also one of the biggest blessings!

He was a stubborn child from the get go though! He ended up being almost 3 weeks late and we almost lost him. When he finally did come the doctors grabbed him and ran because he was completely lifeless and blue. His father and I were so scared! But within an hour they brought him back to us. He was as pink as could be and screaming as loud as a banshee….LOL! He’s never stopped once since that moment.

There have been moments, between him and his sister, that I have questioned why I chose to be a parent. But there have been many, many more moments where I realized just exactly how blessed I am to be their parent!

In honor of my son’s 15th birthday, I made a slide show of photos from his life and set them to music. It’s obvious there are several gaps in the photos, but I lost many of the kids’ pictures in 2003. I’m going to warn you, this is an emotional video, or at least it was for me…LOL!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEITH!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!

I had no choice but to remove the video from YouTube because I discovered that a questionable website had grabbed the video, and I don’t want a video about my son “promoted” by someone I don’t know! I’m sick right now. I’m not stupid enough to believe that what I put online isn’t available for anyone with an internet connection, but in my stupidity, I honestly didn’t know that people could grab my YouTube videos for “their own”. I still have it on my MySpace account, so if you didn’t get to see it contact me via email and I’ll give you my MySpace info!
