Happy Birthday, Precious One!

My! How time has flown!
My baby boy is turning 5 years old today.

You have an unparalleled gift and ability to really savor life.
Your exuberant spirit and over-the-top reaction to everything here on this earth have brightened our world!
You have taught me a thing or two about really LIVING. Full throttle.
Without your dimples and Hershey kisses eyes flashing in my direction when you've done something kinda rotten, our lives wouldn't be half as fun or exciting!
The simple yet profound questions you ask as you eagerly taste your world are refreshing.
Your unquenchable curiosity is truly a mark of the gift God has given you - to crave learning and to seek answers.
The truth in your laugh and the purity behind your eyes challenge me to be the very best I can be each day.
I cannot imagine this world without your footprint in it, you are a truly unique and wonderful gift to us all!
I love you, my ooba dooba with every ounce of love my heart can muster!
