Moo's Bday

 

Nothing makes this boy happier then a ball.

Helmet check.
Moo's new helmet was too small for his Patton head but fit his little sister perfectly - she, who also is sporting a wonderfully large, beautiful cranium.

Me pulling around our two youngsters, Moo and the Baby... I think I'm also working extra hard keeping those sunglasses on my face. Kind of huge.

The Mooster,

Hi, my precious boy who melts my heart. You can see from the pictures above that you adore your sister. I have never seen a toddler be softer or more caring to a younger sibling. You act like she is a gift specifically meant for you - and you treat her as such.

I think you guys will be best pals.

You are always noticing things that make you happy or things you appreciate. I truly believe you have the gift of gratitude. Sometimes I'll be talking and you stop me mid sentence and say,

" I like you Mama."

Oh my gosh, I like you too!

So much.

You would follow your brothers anywhere (you refer to them as your "guys" - so wanting to be part of the group. And typically they want your companionship as well. They think you are so cute and love your little vocabulary. You can't pronounce the C or K sounds very well so you replace them with a T. This results in you calling yourself Taint. Daddy laughs hysterically - I encourage no one to laugh - which increases the laughter by a million percent. Sorry bud.

You actually refer to yourself as Tanky (Tainty) Lou most of the time. :)

You are rarely angry but when you are you take it seriously. You usually don't yell you just stand in one place and stare at the person who has ticked you off. No emotion on your face whatsoever.

You feel offended to the core when being reprimanded and can hold a grudge for a couple hours. Incredible my friend. Incredible.

Your favorite person in the world right now may be your cousin Ayla. You would follow that girl anywhere. You guys play and play and play and play. Until you're done playing and you are beating each other up - but mostly just fabulous play.
I love you my little 3 year old. So very much.
Love,
Mama
