Mommy and Daddy say I am their little miracle man because I'm the baby who, statistically speaking, should have never been.
When my parents first met, my Daddy decided he wanted to have babies with my Mommy. They met in the summer of 1998 but didn't become an actual couple until December 29, 2004.
Due to health issues, the doctors had told Mommy she would have a 30% chance of getting pregnant if she took fertility drugs. After taking birth control religiously for nearly 7 months, my parents discovered [on their 6 month anniversary] that Mommy was 7 1/2 weeks pregnant with me.
That is why they said I am an unquestionable gift from God. And because of the way things went between them for all of those years, and the way I entered their lives, they said I was destined to be. So, they decided to name me Destin, which means 'destiny or fate'. Although, they usually call me 'Bubba'.
I'm growing so fast and doing more things every day. I've had quite a personality since the day I was born. Even in the womb, actually. I blew kisses during ultrasounds and head-butted the ultrasound machine. I'm also a very strong little boy who stays happy. I only fuss when I actually need something or I am very tired and just don't want to sleep because I'm having too much fun being with my family. Mommy is thankful that I'm not a whiny boy. So is my Grandma, Shirley, because she doesn't like cry-babies. (haha) There are a lot of people in my family and they love me very much. I love them, too.
