From his first birthday…
To his fourth…
I can’t believe how much my life has changed over the past 4 years because of this amazing little boy. Even more, I can’t believe how quickly he went from being a crying baby that kept me up all night to this boy who can dress and feed himself. It seems to have just passed by me so quickly. Where did that baby go?
My heart will forever be his. I knew from the moment I found out I was pregnant that I would love him. I had no idea that the love I feel for him would be so overwhelming. My heart aches at each new skill he masters as he pulls further away from needing me. I am also extremely proud of those same skills because he attacks them with enthusiasm that makes me smile.
He is smart, funny, and a bit too stubborn for his own good. He is the best big brother I could ever ask for. He is loving and caring and has better manners than some adults I have seen. He is the first one that will be by your side if you are hurt or crying, with his little arm around you telling you it will all be okay. Things he says on a daily basis are the reason for my smiles often. His imagination is one to be watched. It is only a matter of time before he tries to climb the (play)house or some other feat that we would cringe to think about.
He keeps me on my toes for sure but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Happy Birthday Johnny. I couldn’t be more happy to be your mommy. I love you so much!
