Dear Beau,
Yesterday was your birthday!
(You were kind enough not to wake me up at 2:00am to remind me of the exact time of your birth, many thanks.) A year ago I was so relieved to finally have you here, although your almost
9 lb. arrival wasn't exactly pleasant.

You might have been an eating/crying/pooping/sleeping little guy just like every other baby, but your
misdirected feet seemed to whisper that there was something
super special about you!

A few months later you figured out how to smile and no one within the distance of that smile could stand a chance with you!

Even the doctor who poked and prodded you and cast your whole leg week after week got smiles (usually mixed with tears, but still...)

And then you
laughed and we knew you were a
ham. Big time,
all the way,
live it up, that's your style!

And now you're a smiling, laughing, yelling, jabbering, kissing, waving, almost walking
little boy and I can't help but wonder
how you grew up so fast!


I love you, my crazy
sunshine!
P.S. One day you need to tell me that I'm
amazing for nursing you for a
whole year. And then I will tell you how I
commemorated the end by doing this:

Can you guess what that is? Yep. I really burned it.

And Jacob was there to put out the flames.
