I am thankful for BRODY HUDSON!
This is a very special Tuesday Friendship Post. Today is the 3rd birthday of my much beloved godson, Brody Hudson, son of my dear friends Amy and Eric, and brother of Madden. I love him so much that I named the only recurring character I’ve ever written after him: A gorgeous, famous actor/heartthrob named Brody Hudson appears in MY SO-CALLED FAMILY, POSITIVELY, and the upcoming ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE (2011). HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRODY! And now, a look back:
The day he was born, our first picture together:
First cake, on his first birthday:
Cake to commemorate the sale of ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE - decorated by Brody’s big brother Madden and their mom, Amy:
Celebrating his second birthday - and his health! - the day after an unexpected trip to the emergency room. (I guess these things are never expected, but thankfully Brody got a clean bill of health.)
Reading with Brody and Madden -- their favorite books (not really, but maybe someday):
Eating brownie pie and cracking up the night before Thanksgiving (my eight year old nephew was making funny faces):
This past weekend, two days before the big birthday, some pre-birthday cupcakes:
