Happy Birthday, Son!
To my sweet boy,
You turned one last week and I can just now compose myself enough to write to you. My week was an emotional roller coaster, filled with happy tears and moments of pride. You, K, and Mommy and Daddy celebrated together on Wednesday and then we had family and friends over for a big party on Saturday.
This year has flown by! You have grown so much and I cannot believe twelve months ago you were snuggled into my chest and could be carried around in one arm. Now you are on the move all the time, but aren't quite ready to take those first steps yet. We don't push you as Mommy is fine with you staying little for a little while longer. Sigh. Don't hurry too fast, baby. In a few minutes you will be running away from us...making your own path in the world. And every time you look back, we will be here waving to you.
You don't like being contained and go go go! Travelling in the car is getting trickier as you only last 20 minutes or so. It should make our holiday travels interesting. You are off the bottle now and feed yourself almost anything. You are a great eater and like fruits, veggies, meats, and grains. Yay! You are a big fan of Mickey Mouse and Handy Manny. And everyone who knows you knows that you love all things with wheels. You pretend things have wheels even when they don't. You are getting very interested in books and really enjoy the ones with the little flaps to open and close. You also love music and like to shake your legs and dance! You are a big fan of your big sis and follow her around all day long. She loves you right back and spends her days making you laugh. You also love love love your Daddy and are forever watching him to see what he is doing. You cry sometimes when he leaves for work because you would rather us all be together all day long. And so would we.
You are Mommy's boy. And I wouldn't change one moment of our time together. I have only known your face for the past year, but you have always lived in my heart. I knew you there long before you ever opened those beautiful blue eyes. We've had a wonderful year together and I can't wait to see what next year brings!
I love you, sweet.
Love, Mommy
