He's All B.O.Y.

Oh buddy there are no words to describe just how precious you are to this little family.
In mere months you have gone from being my precious baby on the beach, breathing in the bigness of this world...


to a little boy.


A boy who can't just walk down the stairs but jumps every single one.  A boy who is obsessed with fastening buckles on and off, who takes at least one shoe off everywhere we go, and who likes to make noise in any way possible.


You live and breathe anything Elmo, you follow your sister around everywhere she goes and you want to be just like her.  You wrestle with Daddy but still snuggle and kiss Mommy.  In fact when I lay you in your crib at night we say I love you back and forth several times as I walk out the door.  It seems as though neither one of us want to be the last one saying those sweet, three, life-giving words.


Since Lucy Mills started preschool this year you and I have had some special days together, just the two of us.  This is the first time I've really ever had regular, built in time with just you and I soak it up.  Whether we are running errands, attending story time at the library, or playing at the park our moments together are special and full of smiles.


My sweet son, how did God see me worthy of not only having you in my life, but having you be one of the loves of my life?
