Joy Of The Day #3 & Letters To Jack



"I'll Love You Forever
I'll Like You For Always
As Long As I'm Living
My Baby You'll Be"
 
 
 
 
Sweet Boy,
 
Another month of your beautiful life has flown by, and I find myself sitting here again in awe of how 30 days can somehow allow for so much growth in you.  It seems like everyday you are learning something new as you continue to grow and develop as a little boy.  Moments like the above are but once a day when you and I sit in your room with the lights turned low, and Norah Jones playing on the IPOD while your active little body calms in my arms, and floats off to sleep.  Last night I held you for an hour just staring at you, and kissing your soft skin.  You are such a beautiful baby, and an amazing little man.  Things I have loved this month have been seeing your dance moves get progressively better, listening to you talk about everything and say words.  There is something about your little voice that makes my heart melt.  You have a tendency to say each word twice.  Such as "shoe, shoe" or "ball, ball" or "boat, boat".  It is super cute, at the same time I wonder why you do it haha.  I love watching you dance, since we have moved we have made it a semi-ritual to try and expose you to live music each week and you love it.  You don't care where you are, what you are doing, who is around, who is looking, you just feel the music and I know it brings joy to anyone that has their eyes on you.  I love this about you, and hope you never change.  You are the epitome of teaching all around you that "Life is too short, so just dance".  Grandma brought Palin back last week and it has been so great to see you two together again.  Although you are going through a phase where you are a bit aggressive with P and we need to remind you to be nice to the doggie. 
 
You are such a little string bean.  Finding clothes that fit in all the right ways has been difficult lately.  You are a 6-12 month waist for shorts, but 12-18 months for height.  Tall and thin like your dad.  You have an obsession with shoes and actually picked out your most recent pair at the store which was kind of cool.  You have been on a pushing things around kick, and have been obsessed with your gator walker and shopping cart.  I have also noticed in the past month you have become very interested in all of your cars and trucks. I guess some would say it is just the beginning.  You also are a fan of "choo choo's"  You don't have any yet, but I am thinking the Easter Bunny might bring a little Thomas Train for you.  We have a lot of exciting things coming up over the next few weeks, and I am so excited for the memories we continue to make each day together.  I love you little man!
