It has been far too long since I wrote on here! I need to get with it. I just wanted to take some time and record a very special moment I had with you tonight because I do not EVER want to forget it! I think you were a little tired after such a wonderful Easter day (I'll have to post more about that later), but after I got you all ready for bed, we climbed up in your chair and got ready to read, sing, and pray. We read a book called I Love Dad (and of course we read I Love Mom the night before, hehe) and then I sat and listened as you sang "Little Bunny Foo-Foo" and "Jesus Loves Me" and even sang along a bit. You then curled up in my arms and stared into my eyes as I sang you all the songs I used to sing to you when you were a baby. I almost started crying because it was just so special and sweet. We used to sing those songs every night, but now since you sing along, we have a different playlist. :) After we prayed and had a drink of water, you looked at me and said, "One day I am going to be a train man." You were very certain of this. I love it. :)
I pray you always have big dreams. I pray you always realize you can be whatever you want to be. I pray you always know how very, very special you are to me and to your dad. You have made me a better person in so many ways and I cannot express how much I love being your mom! I have said it before, but I was made to be your mom. It is such a special calling, and it's so very important too. Your Daddy and I have a great responsibility to teach you so many things, including how very much God loves you. The bible says we are "fearfully and wonderfully made" (Psalm 139:14) and that God created you to be YOU before you were ever born. He put a plan and purpose in you and I cannot wait to see what that is! I know God is going to do great things in your life, although I am definitely not ready for you to grow up yet! :) I am fully enjoying each day I have with you! You are just the funniest, most awesome person to be around and there is never a dull moment! I cannot begin to describe my love for you, so I will just say I love you. With all my heart. God knew exactly what He was doing when He gave me you!
