to my son

my dear dear weston. words cannot express how much you mean to your daddy and i. how much joy and life you have brought to us. we cannot believe it has been 4 years since we brought you home from the hospital, all swaddled up in a tiny bundle.
we never could have guessed how much our life would change because of you. how much you would make us laugh. how much you would cause us to worry. how deeply we could love.
just read your baby book this morning. made me cry reading about who we thought you might be as you grow... curious...adventurous...thoughtful...kind...
you already have those attributes and so many more....funny, persistent, sensitive, strong...
you are an amazing big brother an extraordinary boy. we could not be more proud. here's to year #5. may God continue to place His mighty hand on you and bless your every step this year.
