To my little boy

Happy 1st Birthday Sweet Boy. You will never fully know how loved you are, how much you have changed me and our world, or how every day is still like Christmas morning when I walk into your room. This first year has been a whirlwind of fun, love, laughter, and lessons in patience.

The smell of your skin makes me happy.
The sound of your laughter makes me happy.
Your toothy grin makes me happy.
Your bow-legged walk makes me happy.
I love every single second that I spend with you.

You are by far the most magical and wonderful gift God has given your daddy and I. We love you so much. Thank you for choosing us to be your parents. We promise to always be good to you and to make you a little crazy too (it's inevitable).

Birthday party is tonight. I'll be sure to post some gooey first cake pictures later.

Can't wait for the cake pics!!! Happy birthday cutie pie! I think I'll get you some anatomically correct farm animals. Mommy thinks they're weird. She's been away from our old job for too long!

Thanks Jen! The thought of him putting one of those anatomically correct animals in his mouth is just a little too, well, beastiality - like. Are you suggesting that I've become a prude?

When I viewed Aedan being born, I knew he was special as he screamed, kicked and waved his arms. I am so glad that I own, what is it now? 40%?
He is my joy, my laughter, my sense of being. Plus I can shop and help the economy with a reason!
