5

Dear Logan,

Five years ago, you became the fourth member of our family, and made it complete. 


You didn't know right at that time, but you'd have someone to look up to for your whole life.  And Dylan was amazed by you.  In fact, he was the very first person to ever make you laugh.  We always know that wherever Dylan is, chances are you're right beside him.  You all have secrets and games no one else knows.  When you have something important to say, you tell Dylan first.


Your cousins Josh and Maya were born three weeks before you, and it was exciting to think of all of you growing up together through the years.

You've grown so much in these five years.  We've watched you crawl, then walk, play and laugh, go to preschool.  And in a few weeks, you'll begin kindergarten. 


Your life so far has been one adventure after another.  Sometimes challenging, but never, ever dull.  We've been trying our best to help you in the areas you need help, and we've been loving you with every ounce of our beings.  You've taught us about patience, courage, endurance and unconditional love.





Your favorite things to do are ride your bike, play Mario Super Sluggers on the Wii, jump on the trampoline, play with your friends, play baseball, eat treats (especially candy), taekwondo, and play Legos.  You love Cinammon Toast Crunch cereal, Sour Patch Kids, strawberries, pizza, and chocolate ice cream. You're super busy and somedays its all I can do just to keep up with you. 


I'm so excited for all the adventures we'll have in the coming years together.  I love you so very much, and there isn't a thing I wouldn't do to keep you safe.  I'm so proud of you, buddy.  It is the priviledge of a lifetime to watch you and your brother grow up, and to share all of this together.




 I love you always, and forever, and always.  To the moon and back.  Happy Birthday.  May all your dreams come true.

Love, Mom
