Happy Birthday Aaron!

Dear Aaron,
My first boy, my baby A. Every time I look at you I think I am so lucky to have you. The look you give me when I come home, the angelic little "hi!" and eyes full of love, make me want to never walk away from you again.

Sweet and loving, Aaron. You give the world's BEST hugs, complete with a pat on the back at the end. It causes me pain each time one of those hugs end.

You are a friend to everyone. Especially Brady. You are concerned about him. You try to keep him in line. You sing him to sleep at night. You pass him all the toys during nap time.

You follow Alaina around like she is a queen.

You are such a great big brother. You are very concerned about Brett and you are very involved in everything he does. You bend down to his level several times, randomly, every hour, just to say "hi" and pat his head or his back.
Your eyes give "Mommy" the most love of all.

You love to be outside and I think you'd just sleep out there if we would let you. Nature and you: a perfect pairing. You did not get that from me! Animals, dirt, plants, you name it, you love it.
You love to look into the sky for "tweet-tweets" and "cars". We're trying to make you understand that those are "airplanes". You'll get it soon!
You love anything that moves and you can't stop moving yourself. You love to play blocks, and make "choo-choos" out of anything with wheels. I'm guessing you have a real future in engineering.
You are growing up so fast. Too fast. I can't believe how far you've come in the last year and how much further you're going to go in the next. I just hope that you always know how much you are loved. We can't tell you enough, Little Man, we adore you!
