Happy 24th Birthday Emily!!!

 

Happy birthday, Emily!!!

                                       You are such a great daughter. We love you so much.

                               You are the best little sister and I can't wait to see you be the best Aunt.

                       Noah is so lucky to have you as one of his big sisters. He loves to spend time with you.

Not the Way We Wanted to Clelebrate

As I watch you finally sleep on your 20th birthday, I'm overcome with great relief that you were able to battle back once again. I so wish that your birthday could have been so much better. You have been through so much in your life. You deserve the biggest party to celebrate the amazing little guy that you are. Instead we will rejoice that you are alive to celebrate another day.

The nurses were amazing!!!! They made a sign to put on his door to help Noah celebrate.

Tristan and Olivia stopped by with balloons and to wish Noah a Happy Birthday.

Child life gave Noah a bear and a new blanket for his birthday.

 

                    Happy Birthday Noah!!!!! We love you

Happy 26th Birthday Morgan

Happy birthday, Morgan. We are so proud of the women you have become and we are  so excited to watch you be an amazing Mom to our grandbaby. We love you so very much.

Happy 23rd. Birthday, Emily

 

Happy birthday, Emily!!! We are truly blessed that you are in our lives When you were little I always said if you were born first there would have been more then 2 years between you and Morgan. You always kept us on our toes and we wouldn't have wanted you any other way. You still have that spunk and fire in you and you are doing great things and I can't wait to see what God has in store for you this year. Continue to keep the love of Christ deep within in and you will go far.

I love you sweet girl and hope this is your best year yet.

Happy 19th. Birthday Noah!!!

Happy 19th birthday sweet Noah. It's hard to believe you are 19 years old today. Some days the road has seemed so long but other days it seems that years have flown by. You have taught me so much. I'm a lot stronger person then I ever thought possible. I'm  more passionate then I would have been without you in my life. Because of you I'm a better person. I'm so glad that God chose me to be your Mom. Do I want things easier for you?  Absolutely.... but I really wouldn't want you any other way and then you wouldn't be the Noah we know and love. You have made me who I am, just the way you are. I like who I am because of you.

I so love this quote....

God gives special needs children to regular parents, who choose to step up and be strong for their child!! That special child teaches you life lessons that you never could have anticipated, and throughout your journey together, you learn how to become the parents that your child needs.

Happy Birthday Morgan

 

Twenty five years ago you made me a Mom. You have grown into the most beautiful woman inside and out. I'm so very proud to call you my daughter. I thank God everyday for making you mine. 

This year has brought you extreme highs, like expecting our first grandchild and an extreme low when you lost your precious baby that was already loved by so many. Please know that we love you so very much and wish we could take all the pain away. I hope this next year brings you much joy and happiness.

Happy 22nd Birthday Emily

Happy Birthday, Emily!!! I can't wait to see what God has in store for you this year.

Happy 18th Birthday Noah

 Happy birthday, Noah!!!!  

I'm so glad God chose me to be your Mom. Last week  when I got overwhelmed and stressed out, I said I was tired of being your Mom. It's not that was tired of you, I was tired of all the things that come along with being a special needs Mom. I love you to the moon and back. We have an unspoken language that allows us to communicate. We have a bond that is knit tightly in my heart. I would be totally be lost without you. You are my world sweet boy and I love you.....

 I love to see you and or Dad interact with each other. It makes my heart melt watching the love between you two.

 Your sisters Morgan and Emily have been through a lot over the years. They didn't get the attention that deserved but that never stopped them from loving you.

 It's hard to believe that you are 18 years old. You will always be my little man.

You are only 4ft. 9in. tall

You weigh 72lbs 15 3/4oz.

You wear 12/14 boy shirts

and 14/16 boys pants

Your shoe size is 13/1 toddler

I'm so glad you are still small enough for me to hold and cuddle and you still allow me to.

Happy birthday, Noah!!!!

You are well loved.

Happy Birthday, Morgan

Happy 16th Birthday, Noah

It doesn't seem possible that Noah is 16 today. He has taught us so much. Patience, understanding,, gratitude, determination, bravery, how to love unconditionally, the list goes on and on. He is a true Hero and he continues to inspire us everyday. Our family wouldn't be the same without him.

Happy 16th birthday, Noah!!!!

We love you to the moon and back.

Happy Birthday, Morgan!!!

Today our beautiful daughter, Morgan celebrated her 22nd. birthday.

Where has the time gone?

I'm so proud of the women she has become.

Happy 19th Birthday, Emily

 

Nineteen years ago we were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. She has been the best little/big sister ever. God knew the perfect child to take on the role of sister in our family.

 

 Morgan and Emily have grown up to be very close. They helped  each other when I was  busy with Noah.

 

Emily loves her little brother unconditionally. She has never showed any type of resentment towards him. She is my right hand gal. I don't know what I would do without her.

Thank you, Emily for being a great little/big sister.

 

Happy birthday, Emily!!!  We love you.

Noah's Birthday

 

 

Noah was so excited when Issiah, Madelyn, Ethan and Lillian came to see him on his birthday.

These little guys adore Noah. It does my heart good to see them having fun with him. They see him just like anyone else. I love these little guys so much.

 

Grandma and Grandpa Bebow stopped by for a bit too.

This picture cracks me up. I can hear Noah's happy sounds just looking at it.

 Noah's birthday gift was to go watch the Shelby boys basketball team practice. He was so excited.

 We got to watch them do their end of practice drills. It was pretty impressive to watch.

After they finished up their practice they gathered around Noah and sang Happy Birthday to him.

What a great group of boys. Thanks guys it really meant a lot to Noah and his parents. Hope you enjoyed the cupcakes.

          Go Shelby!!!!!!
