Happy Bald – Happy Birthday Son

Dearest Boo Boo

I can’t believe that two years have gone by so fast. It’s been an unbelievable ride – I have never been more tired and more satisfied with my life than these last few years. Mommy and I always ask each other – what did we do without you in our life. I feel that Mummy has gone ahead and stole a lot of my thunder (see post) – but she really remembers a lot more than I do. I just want you to know that I love you dearly. I love how you drive us crazy – but more than that I love that the both of us can drive Mommy bonkers. Especially when you copy Daddy and do the things Mommy doesn’t approve off. (Poop watching, licking food and anything yucky off your fingers, giving wet kisses – blowing raspberries on Mummy’s stomach and anything boyish) I love you darling.

I still remember cradling you in my arms the night you were born – totally exhausted and refusing to close my eyes – I was afraid to drop you or have someone walk into the room and take you. You were just a few inches – and now you are getting closer to Mommy’s height. I love reading stories to you – while you rest on my arms. I love our outings together just you and me – whether we go to the zoo for the millionth time, playground, pool or even the grocery store.

And yes, daddy has lost a lot of hair since the day I first saw you. You will always be Daddy’s baby and I will love you forever. I love you through and through.

Love Daddy.
