Fourteen years ago today, I was at Enloe Hospital here in Chico, giving birth to Elias Timothy Holdstock Smith! Today has been much more relaxing for me... as fourteen years ago Eli was in fact huge for his age and not ready to participate in life on his own. Ironically, now he is the exact opposite! However, Eli hasn't celebrated a birthday in Chico since his very first day on earth, so we are excited to celebrate "him" here this year. On a previous visit we had attempted to connect with the midwife who delivered both Eden and Eli, but she has since retired. We are hoping to reconnect this time outside of the clinic.
Naomi: Happy Birthday Boy, I love you even though it doesn't seem like it all the time. It's been a good 5 years at least! lol
Eden: Happy Birthday to my favourite brother. I love you!
Mum: Glad you're out son! It seems like just yesterday you were a wrinkled, underdone, little lizard that Eden tried to feed to the dog. I am soooo proud of you. Thank you for blessing my heart. xo
Dad: Happy Birthday Bub... You're turning out alright!
