Max!

Max 1 year old from Jamie Dillier on Vimeo.

One year ago, Max was born!

I've learned a lot in the last year because of Max.

I've learned that I can survive natural childbirth

I've learned what my personal hell looks like (When Max almost died)

I've learned that family and friends rallying around me can give me strength I never knew I had

I've learned that a person can actually survive on 3 hours of sleep per night for an entire year. That person might go crazy, but it is possible.

I've learned that peanuts are EVIL!

I've learned that my little family, John, Alex and Max, are the sum total of what I need to make me happy.  Nothing more, nothing less. 

Happy birthday my one year old boy!  I love you more than I could ever tell you.
