to my three year old: a tough year behind us

4.02.2014

dear mr. boy,

today you turned three.  THREE, rawley!  that seems so crazy to me.  i know i say this every year, but you are growing way to fast and that makes me sad.

this year has brought us many struggles and i know that comes with the nature of being two, but it has also been extremely hard because you are still a very stubborn, determined and strong willed boy.  while now it may bring mamma to tears some days, but i know these qualities will take you very far in life and it's what makes you, YOU!

recently you have become more affectionate and wanting to snuggle mamma often.  anytime i ask for a hug or kiss, you will give me one and that makes me extremely happy.  i know these days won't last forever so i'm trying to soak up every ounce of it.  your relationship with your brother has been so much better this year.  there are still days where you push him or put him in a choke hold, but you two are starting to have more fun together and that makes my heart happy.  you guys will race down the halls together in your plasma cars and laugh and scream with such joy.  you will help mamma tuck brother into bed and always say "night night dawson" and when he wakes up you are so happy because you hate when he sleeps because you want to play with him all the time.

you are still struggling with your speech delay and just recently started a new preschool {which you happen to LOVE by the way} and i hope this helps bring your words out.  you have made such huge strides this year with your speech and i couldn't be more proud of you!  i can see you applying and working so hard to catch up with your peers and while i know you can find it difficult and end up moving on to the next task, you are trying and it brings me to tears to see you finally happy and proud of yourself.  you are becoming more social and happy to play with your friends and cousins.  i love watching you laugh and overcoming what once was a huge obstacle for you and that brings me so much joy.

although the days are long, i love when you wake me up every morning {at 6am by the way} with your sweet smile to start the day.  please keep being the strong willed, determined, sweet and loving boy that you are.  you bring your whole family so much happiness and we love you so much!  happy third birthday sweet, rawley!

love,

your mamma
