I did write that post, but I turned it into a letter that I will share with Ben. I haven't decided if I will put it in the time capsule or save it for when he has a child of his own, but in any event, it's not getting posted here.
I don't want to leave you completely hanging, so here is a photo-journal of Ben's first year of life. Enjoy.
