Happy 2nd Birthday Terren!


Happy birthday, sweet boy! I can’t believe you’re already two!!

Daddy says you’ve completed our family; do you think we’ll ever change his mind? If not, then I guess this is the last time I will have a sweet, little, one-year old baby to snuggle because now that you’re a busy little toddler, we’ll be begging for that cuddle time!

Little boy, you are so smart and so sweet and as much as we’ll hate losing our baby, we love watching you grow. You can now run and jump and climb. You love riding your new big wheel and your itty bitty four wheeler. It's hilarious to watch you run from your big brother while laughing hysterically.

The words from your mouth are so delightful, along with all your giggles and screeches. You pick up a phone and say, “he-wo? Oh!” like you’re having a grown up conversation. I love the way you ask, “What dat?” and “Wher-di-doe?” and after your questions are answered, you always reply with an “Oh…” like it’s just what you wanted to hear.

It is such a joy to watch you communicate with your brother and it makes my heart so happy when you two play together without screaming. I love the way you lay your head on his shoulder and give him a big squeeze and “sar-wee” before you’re even scolded for pinching, biting, hitting and all those other naughty things you’re constantly doing.

The way you try so hard to sign “I love you” while saying, “Wuv you” is absolutely heart-warming, even though it looks more like you’re signing “Live long and prosper.”

You have such a wonderful personality and already, at two, you’re a tiny, little joker. Your birthday theme was perfect! I know now that it’s you that is going to grow up to be a silly clown just like your wonderful daddy.

We love you so much Terren. Happy birthday, little man!
