Happy 3rd!

My baby boy is 3 and it blows my mind how much he has grown. I look at him and just marvel at the little boy in front of me.  He talks so much and comes up with the funniest things sometimes.

Matthew is full of imagination.  He loves playing super heroes and certainly keeps us on our toes.  We play with him to try and tire him out but it's usually mommy and daddy that are exhausted by time it's HIS bedtime.  I love when he puts up his little finger and says, 'I have an idea!'

Matthew is so loving and certainly knows how to melt mommy's heart.  I cherish those moments when, out of the blue, he tells me he loves me.  Especially when he says, 'I love you the whole wide world mommy!'  That sweet little voice to match his sweet little face. 

It is so sweet to hear Matthew say prayers.  He thanks Heavenly Father for 'mommy, daddy and Matthew' and will occasionally throw in there, 'thank you for my movies and t.v.'

At the end of each day, I usually ask Matthew what his favorite part of the day was. It's usually spending time with mommy, his cousins, or playing superheroes.  Then he will ask us what our favorite parts of the day were.  And no one can have the same favorite part!

I adore my baby boy and I do miss him every minute I'm not with him.  He has been such a huge blessing in my life.  With every passing day, I know he is getting bigger and wiser.  I look forward to many more happy moments with my little guy. 

Happy birthday big guy.  Mommy and Daddy love you SO much!
