- We love your baby features which are slowly going away as you grow older.
- We love your smile without showing teeth…seems strange, but it’s who you are.
- We love your awareness of everything...you might not talk our language yet, but you KNOW more than we think.
- We love your loooooong cuddles! We never knew a child could sit and just cuddle as much as you do! You are just such a peaceful little man.
- We love your kisses! You always turn your head so we are cheek to cheek. I have to turn your lips toward my cheek and then you remember and make the perfect kissing sound. :)
-We love your love for cars, Dora, Lego's and coloring...anything that brings you joy, brings us joy.
- We love when you laugh along with everyone else in the room, even though you have no idea what you are laughing about. :)
- We love how you show us your arm muscles and grunt at the same time.
- We love how clean, orderly and meticulous you can be (especially when you are eating something and you insist on using a wipe every time you get a piece of food on you somewhere). Sometimes that can be a hard skill to teach someone.
- We love how well you drink from a regular cup now. Wow!
- We love your singing! You are still not articulating your words right, but you can sing any song perfectly in tune, which makes it is easy for us to identify which song you are singing. Your favorite song is "Clop, Clop, Clop Goes the Donkey's Feet." (ET learned this one at preschool and he taught it to you.)
- We love how much you love to "honk" our nose. :)
- We love how ticklish you are...you have such an adorable belly laugh!
- We love the way you march your feet when you are dancing or when you are super excited about something.
- We love that you have such concern for others when they are sad. You always come running to give a hug when someone is crying.
- We love how well you play with others, and we also love how content you are when you are playing by yourself.
- We love the way you drum along to the beat of a song while riding in the truck by patting your legs.
- We love watching you jump. You try so hard to get both feet up off the ground. :)
- We love that you are such a good eater. You almost always finish your meal. Some of your favorite foods are...pizza, chicken nuggets & french fries, broccoli, pineapple, toast with PB or nutella, cookies (these are just a few).
- We love when you play peek-a-boo and you think no one can see you if you are just covering your eyes.
- We love your belief that if you close your eyes, everyone will just go away.
- We love how much you like going outside to play in the snow. You just love stomping your way through the snow, and never complain if you fall down. It is a tough skill to get back up again with all that apparel on, but you've got it down now. :)
- We love how you spontaneously will reach over and give your brother a love pat when you are both eating at the kitchen island together.
- We love that you have been capable of going up and down the stairs all by yourself for a while now!
- We love how good of a sleeper you are. You still only take short naps, but you have always slept so well during the night, and you adjusted amazingly to your new big boy bed!
- We love how much you love us!
We love you now for who you are and we will continue to love you unconditionally all your life. You are an amazing boy, and we are so blessed to have you in our lives.
"May the Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace."
- Numbers 6:24
We love you will all our heart,
Mommy and Daddy
