Happy Birthday Logan!

Dear Logan,

Two years ago today, at 7:15 am, we met you for the very first time. You were two days early, and I think this was a sign that you arrived ready to take on the world at full speed. You were so sweet, and so peaceful in my arms.




You met your brother for the first time just hours later. He was so proud to bring you a teddy bear he made just for you. Watching the two of you bond these past two years has been magical. Dylan was the first person to make you laugh. I hope that you will always be kind to each other and continue to grow close. Always remember that family is the most important, precious thing we have.




These past two years, you've carved out your place in our family and made it feel complete. Its been so fun watching you grow from a little, soft fleshy lump into a sitting, crawling, walking, talking little guy.




You've always been very fickle about what you'll eat and you leave me guessing at what to make you every day. You definitely have a sweet tooth, though, and you'd eat candy and cookies everyday if we let you.




Every day with you is an adventure. You've given us some gray hairs for sure, but you've also made us laugh as you explore the world and figure out how this crazy place works. You have the deepest laugh and it comes straight from your belly. You are learning how to express yourself more and more, and you're so proud everytime you use new words.







You have such an expressive face, and I love taking you to new places just to see your reaction and see things through your eyes. You're also so friendly, and love saying hello to everyone, and telling them goodbye. I call you 'The Greeter' as we walk through stores, and you interact with everyone who walks by.



You currently love all animals, and have a special fondness for ducks. You love balls, playing in water, trying on everyone's shoes, coloring on yourself with markers, riding your scooter, doing puzzles (which you are very good at!), and doing absolutely everything Dylan does! You also love to cuddle and read stories, its about the only time you'll sit still!




Happy Birthday, my sweet boy. I hope you will always be as full of life and passion as you are at two. The world should watch out for you, you'll always be riding on top of it!


Love, Mommy
