Time passes too quickly...

It is a special day today. Alexander is turning 3 years old. I have this little tradition with the kids, although only Lincoln has caught on to it, and that is I recount cute stories about my personal experience with them and my impressions of them from years past to remind them about how wonderful they are. Tonight as I anticipate tommorows birthday glee, I am reminded of the second night I spent with Alex. I was moved from my hospital room because of plumbing issues into a closet of a room in the back of  the labor and delivery check in area. I couldn't page the nurse if I wanted to, and so I was only checked on about once the entire night. Alex also was having a hard time because he had swallowed so much fluid duriing delivery. He cried a lot that night. I remember however that when I sang to him he would calm down. So as exausted as we both were, I held him in my arms the entire night singing The Way You Look Tonight. So in honor of Alex's third birthday I thought I'd post Frank Sinatra's version of this memorable song.
Happy 3rd Birthday Alex. I really do feel a glow just thinking of you.
