3 years of loving you

Name: Asher
Name Meaning: Happy/blessed

Asher Reuben, you my boy were the happy at such a time as this.

Bitter-sweet

The last three years have been some of my toughest yet.

The last three years have felt 'bitter-sweet'.

The last three years have consisted of:

Various diagnoses
Illness
Uncertainty
Anxiety and depression
A pandemic
Lockdown
3 family deaths
Developmental delays
Waiting for and receiving Asher's diagnosis

This list is very much the bitter part of the three years.

But Asher Reuben, you my boy, are the sweet!

To our gorgeous Asher Reubs

This week was your Birthday, This week you turned three, this week we celebrated three years of you.

Three years of...

Your smile
Your cheekiness
Your laugh
Your forehead kisses
Your cute little waves
Your definite points
Your love for books
Your love of photos

Your delight at watching a ball being thrown into a hoop
The way you sign for 'more'
The sound you make for yes and 'ummmm'
The way you wait to hold unto my hand
The way you dance
The way you watch your brother playing so intently
The way you pull my face close to yours when you are sad.
You trying on any type of hat or glasses
You leaning in for a cuddle

Three years of you.

Happy Birthday Asher

We love you. X
