HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!








Can I just say, "Wow!"

Wow!

Two. Two whole, entire years. Already. Just...wow.

Last year at this time you weren't even walking. Now you're running, climbing, talking, dancing, singing! So many changes in such a short period of time.

The time is flying by and it's like...it's like...being on a roller coaster. Thrilling and nauseating all at the same time. Thrilling because each day is something new. A new skill, a new development, phrase, a new reason to smile, to laugh. Nauseating because it's going by so fast, each day is one more day closer to you being all grown up. I want it to slow down. But it's not going to, so we're enjoying every second with you. You're so wonderful! Such a beautiful boy!

And I hope you had a wonderful birthday today. It was just you, Papa, Sushi (that's what you call Lizzie/Sissy), and me celebrating today. We'll have a "real" birthday party next weekend, but today it was just us, a cake, a present, and an Elmo balloon (because you have developed a passion for Elmo, after watching "Elmo's Potty Time" on DVD--totally Mommy's fault).

BTW, the cake says "Happy Dirthdy" not because Mommy cannot spell, but because that's how you say it. We've been talking for about a month now about turning two and having a birthday and having people sing "Happy Birthday" and every time you sing "Happy Dirthdy to you!" which is, of course, extraordinarily cute!

Happy birthday Do-Dah!!!

Love forever,

Mommy
