Adam, you are One Year Old today! It feels impossible that this happened one whole year ago. *sigh* There are so many things I want to remember forever about you in this very moment. Most of them I can only treasure in my heart, but even now as I watch you climb on top of the coffee table with that mischievous look in your eye and a grin on your dimpled face, here are just a few notable things I’d like to record…
A Top Ten list for Turning ONE:
TEN tiny fingers that each fit perfectly up your nose…
NINE seconds for you to speed-crawl from the farthest corner of the house as soon as you hear the dishwasher open…
EIGHT times (at least) each day you enthusiastically empty a kitchen drawer, cabinet, or pantry shelf onto the floor…
SEVEN teeth in your joyfully uneven grin…
SIX is the age of your adoring sister who you love to snuggle and giggle with…
FIVE words you know in sign language, and each one of them relates to food and eating…
FOUR pairs of lips and arms await you each night for good-night hugs and kisses…
THREE is the age of your 'big' brother (though he only weighs a few pounds more), who loves to play with you, teach you, and try to ride you like a horse when you are crawling…
TWO chubby cheeks that just don’t ever seem to get enough kisses, though Mommy and Daddy will continue to try…
ONE whole year--which has gone by far too fast--you have been in our lives, making our family an even more joy-filled place, and we can't imagine it without you…
Happy Birthday, baby boy! We love you so much!
