Ladies and Gentlemen, we did it. Jonah Hobson Temple is one year old. I think back - going into labor, his birth, the babymoon, the endless days of moby wrapping him, the inguinal hernia, the first bath, the second first bath, learning how to put a diaper on, learning how to feed him, gazing into his deep unblinking eyes, weeping with joy and love, the late night, middle of the night and early morning feedings, putting him in a basket for naps, the first tooth, the first smile, the first toys, the laughter and frustration and sheer transformation of me as a person and as a mother. Its been utterly remarkable.
