oh little buddy, how t h r e e years can change so much. two things that haven’t changed.
our love for you.
our love for spoiling you.
what a special third birthday you had. we started the morning off with a surprise birthday balloon, breakfast and a gift. i could tell you were really going to enjoy this day. we then went to mass for your birthday. you took your new cars but understood you weren’t suppose to be “too loud” with them. you behaved so well and after you belted out the alleluia, i decided in my head you could be as loud as you wanted with those cars because that singing of yours made my day. after mass father orrin gave you a birthday blessing. you told him all you wanted for your birthday was chocolate cake. oh how i adore you sweet little man.
sam was pretty excited about your birthday treats too.
that afternoon we headed out to meet daddy for lunch. we picked him up downtown and drove around to find you a chic-fil-a. after we finally located a good one you exclaimed from the back seat that you wanted whataburger. oh boy. you were a hoot to listen to when people would call you to wish you a happy birthday. you would proudly say “hewo” “thanks” and “i yuv you, bye!” no shyness today, that’s for sure!
for being spoiled all day, you were really so good! you fell asleep on your own at about 6:30 and did not budge. we were so sad because we really wanted you to blow out candles again. the next morning i told you, well you are officially t h r e e ! you were so sad when you realized it wasn’t your birthday anymore. you asked “what got my birthday over?!” i responded with well, you fell asleep and its a whole new day. you said “well then my birthday can be tomorrow?!” oh we love you sweet boy. thanks for giving us the best three years as parents. you are such a joy!
