A letter to you on your birthday!
January 20th 6:40 am
Good morning my crazy little man. Today is your fourth birthday. I can not believe your already 4 years old! It took FOREVER last night to get you to fall asleep, You came out of your room 20 minutes after your daddy put you to bed and was like, "Is it my birthday now?" You were just so excited, it was well after midnight that you finally fell asleep. Well, how does it feel to be four? I think it feels about the same. You grow and change slowly, thank goodness, because it gives mommy and daddy time to adjust to all those little changes. But I swear I blinked and your already four. We tell you all the time that we want you to stay our baby boy but you want nothing to do with it "I'm a big boy, not a baby!" is what you say.
You are a hilarious little clown who keeps the whole family entertained. You talk and ask questions ALL THE TIME. Your an adventurer and a dreamer. Your super LOUD and crazy hyper. You love to run, jump in puddles and play outside. Your the sweetest big brother to Kinsley and I love the way you look up to your big brother. You still love anything that goes...cars, trains or planes. You have FINALLY stoped watching cars or cars 2 every day, but you are watching and rewatching this one episode of Mickey Mouse endlessly "Pirate Mickey." Your newest obsession is board games and we play them every day, multiple times a day.
The days leading up to today have been so fun counting down the days on our chalkboard. Watching the excitement build has been so much fun.Your endless energy, crazy zeal for life and infectious joy are some of my most loved traits of yours. As exhausting as your energy can be some days, it has been a joy to watch you grow. I have learned so much about you in these few short years.
While being your mother has challenged me, stretched me, refined me, and downright worn me out more than any other thing I’ve accomplished, it a joy to be blessed as your mother.
Happy Birthday My love.
Love Always and Unconditionally,
MomMom.
