Eight Years Ago, Today

May 31, 2007 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Living Liturgically, Minnesota Me, Special Events 12 Comments

We prayed…and got our May baby.

He wasn’t due until the 8th of June, you know, but what Mary wants, Mary gets! Especially when it’s at the request of another momma! : )

To our Stephen, Happy Birthday! And to the rest of you, a very blessed Feast of the Visitation!

    I never get my babies early, no matter how hard I pray! Happy birthday to your charming young man!

    Oh, Margaret! It is so rare that I cry when viewing a post. You got me!! He is so precious, and I love the song you chose.

    BTW, I was thinking of Stephen all week. We should really try to have our own “visitation” one day. How I would love to have our children meet!

    God bless you, dear Stephen! Happy Birthday!!

    He looks like a sweet little man … and a very handsome one too!

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Stephen!

    *I love the song choice too. I make photo stories all of the time, and I’ve used that one before. I just love the music.

    I always thought a May baby would be lovely. (And certainly Stephen proves this!) However, I didn’t want to pray for that this time since I’m not due until August, nor last time since I was due in February. 😉 Maybe someday.
    Happy birthday to a handsome, happy, Minnesota boy!!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
