on your second birthday.

dec. 3, 2015
dear milo,

today you are two years old and i can hardly believe it. these past two years have gone by so quickly and you have grown so much. i remember the day you were born so clearly that it is hard to believe that two whole years have gone by.
you have grown so much this past year and we have grown to love you even more. this past year you have become more stubborn, like me, and more creative, like your dad. you learn something new almost every day and it is so exciting to see you learn and grow. you love toy story and big hero six. the two dogs that gram gave you, darth and max (you named them that yourself), are in your arms almost all day long and you cannot go to sleep without them. you are so smart and know almost all of your letters. numbers are a different story, but we are working on them. you think you know how to count and i hear you say "I, O, 9" all day long. it is adorable and makes me love you even more. you are silly and spunky and make us laugh all day long. you are crazy about your dad and want to do everything with him but you are still a mama's boy and can't be away from me for too long. you are tough but sensitive and give the sweetest little kisses "buh!". 
milo, we absolutely adore you and cannot wait to see how much you learn and grow over this next year. you are the light of my life and i love you more than ever.
happy second birthday.

love,
mama
