we got snuck up on by judah's birthday video this year. so instead of drowning in a stress vortex trying to finish the big huge all-encompassing video for the whole year in time for his party today, i gave myself a few extra days to work on it non-frenzied before his actual birthday on wednesday, and instead asked jesse to make a sweet little quickie one showing how far we've come these past 2 years to tide us over.
we adore this song. i remember being pregnant very early on, before we knew that judah was a boy and hearing this song on the coffeehouse channel in our car. i started crying so hard just imagining what it would be like to raise a kid from umbilical cord to independence. i immediately came home and downloaded the song and played it for jesse and told him this would be the soundtrack to our raising little kids.
so there probably will be a 15 minute long video that only me and my mom will watch and which we be fun and games and will include everyone who loves judah, but for now i will just watch this on repeat and marvel at my little man and our love for him.
you and me: walk on, walk on, walk on, cause you can't go back now.

that is one heck of a cute kid you've got there. happy 2nd birthday to judah! (and way to go to you guys for rocking out with a little dude for 2 whole years AND adding a chick to the mix to boot!)
ReplyDeleteOh WOW he is gorgeous. All of you are. LOVE the video, I'm welling up over here! Happy (almost) birthday, Judah! Our kids are almost exactly the same ages! :)
ReplyDeleteI cried! I can't wait to watch another year of that cute boy growing up :-)
ReplyDeleteVideo with music and pictures, you know I love it! happy bday little guy!
ReplyDeleteSo love this!!! What an awesome song...great pick, K8. Can't believe you left me out of the ones who will watch the 15 min. or 15 hour video...for shame:)

ReplyDeletethanks guys! this one just slays me. we created our own form of emotional torture. like when i would listen to "its so hard to say goodbye to yesterday" by boyz II men over and over again after 5th grade graduation to make myself cry. so happy and so sad all at once. all kinds of touched. jesse is the artist of the fam. i cant edit and always overdo it for the sake of not leaving anything out.
