Somehow I blinked and my sweet teeny tiny 5lb 6oz baby boy
Ahhhhh!
I woke up one morning and all of a sudden you were
SeVeN!!!!
I could go on and on about the many reasons why you are so special, but here are the
Top 7 reasons why I love you!

SeVeN!!!!
I could go on and on about the many reasons why you are so special, but here are the
Top 7 reasons why I love you!
1. You are CRAZY compassionate. You are so gentle with your sisters. You include them in whatever you are doing and help them all the time (even without us asking you to.) You dote on them and make them feel so special. You are the best big brother and our girls are blessed to have you watch over them the way you so naturally do.
2. You are sensitive. You still cry when you get hurt and come to me to make it all better. I love when I can help make your world better and hope it never stops!
3. You love to snuggle. You are always coming up to sit with Daddy and I, wiggling your long limbs into a spot right next to us. We both love to cuddle with you! Oh, and not to mention, you can give a mean massage. Which reminds me....for some reason you'll only give them to Daddy now... we need to talk about that one :)
4. You are so creative. Whether it's building your own Lego masterpieces or writing elaborate stories I am always so blown away at your creativity. You are definitely gifted with that. I (almost) can't wait to see what you're going to do when you're all grown up (sniff, sniff.)
5. You are easygoing. You make friends easily and love people right away. You don't leave anyone out, you forgive quickly and live loudly.
6. You love Jesus. It's so amazing to see your faith blossom. I really can't even put into words what it's like to see you begin to practically act out your faith. You inspire and encourage me with your sweet spirit. I pray that you will continue to believe so easily and that your relationship with God would only deepen and strengthen as you get older.
7. You love freely. You really do. You still come up to me, nestle your head on my shoulder and tell me you love me. Every single day you make me so thankful that God chose me to be your mommy. Thank you for teaching me how to love better than I know how to.
What an adorable picture of the two of you. He sounds like a very sweet and talented little guy. I hope he has a great day!
