To My Big Five Year Old Boy

Last night before tucking you into bed, we talked about all the cool things that happened to you while you were four:

You became a big brother for the second time.

You sat on Santa's lap at Mommy's work and you weren't even scared!

You learned how to read, how to write, and how to draw an amazing Buzz Lightyear.

You got your first bike, your first swingset, and you learned how to swim.

You bravely tried some really amazing big boy rides when we went to Wonderland in Amarillo.

You enjoyed every minute of your first experience at the theater when you went to see the movie "Cars" with Daddy.

You discovered the internet and would spend many happy hours online, if only Mommy didn't set such stingy time limits.

You brought boundless love and cheer to every single day of the past year.

Happy birthday, my precious son. I can hardly wait to see what this new year has in store for you!
