For Your Fourth Birthday
Dear Simon,
You turned four on Saturday. We celebrated with a chicken cake and a dragon cake and a really wonderful day at Ohiopyle.
I have so many things to say to you, newly four.
The ways you make my heart sing. {those smiling eyes and face adjustments, and the cuddles and...}
The ways you are transforming my character. {that whiny voice, and those stunts (always looking back to be sure I saw)}
The ways you are the joy of your sister, and she your own joy. {the great big belly laughs}
The ways you are a necessary part of our little family. {capturing the full emotion of each moment}
But I can't always find the words for all those things, to really capture who you are-my little boy. Just know, Simon, that you are dearly loved and that I am so very, very glad we kept trying. You are so worth the wait.
Love,
Mommy
