Dearest Fitzgerald –

Two years ago today – I held you for the first time. I looked into your sweet little eyes and you attached yourself even deeper to my heart. I marveled at your little fingers and toes. I thanked God for sending you into our lives. I kissed you and whispered in your ear – I love you.

Two years ago today – God gave us a miracle. He sent you.

Every morning you wake up and say HI! I ask how you are – you say GOOD! We do this about 10 times – each time with more enthusiasm! You help me make breakfast and we read the Bible. We pray for all the babies in our lives and for your little feet. You tell me your colors and some letters. You love to read books and play with legos. You make eggs in your little kitchen and LOVE to make pizza with your play-doh kit!

Pizza is your favorite food – you ask for it every day! You call cookies caterpillars. You ask if your food is hot or brrrr. You point out mommas and babies all the time. You help with the laundry and LOVE to do the dishes.

You love to be outside. You help feed the cows at Gramma & Pa’s house. You say bless you when people sneeze. You tell everyone that dadda cut your hair! You’ve been learning and growing so much!

You are 3 feet tall and 35 pounds! You wear 3T everything – and some 4T. Your shoes are a size 8!

You are the sweetest and cuddliest baby I know.

We thank God for you every single day! I pray that you will know kindness every single day. I pray that you will love Jesus with all your heart. I pray that you will be passionate about giving. I pray that you will know that God loves you. I pray that you will know that we love you. I tell you every day. About a million times.

Happy birthday sweetest boy of my life!
