Four years ago today...

I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy.

(Well, as I write this, it's already past midnight, so yesterday was his birthday.)


Loren Blanton Bentley IV was born on September 24, 2004 at 7:31 in the morning. He weighed 7 lbs, 7.6 ounces and was 21 1/2 inches long.


I can't believe he's already four. Loren is learning how to read, can count to 10 in English, to 5 in Spanish, and to 3 in Japanese. He loves Transformers and insists that he is Bumblebee (one of the good guys, of course). He's fascinated with dinosaurs, his pet snails, and is a very loving big brother. He can hold a very polite conversation with pretty much anyone now, usually about Transformers. He's my little tough guy and he insists that he is going to go to the Olympics to compete in Judo some day. I am so proud of all that he has become thus far in his little life.

Happy Birthday, Loren!! Mommy and Daddy love you!!


I'll love you forever,
I'll like you for always,
As long as I'm living
my baby you'll be.
