Benjamin is 2!

Our Benjamin,

Two years ago, we welcomed you to the world. It was love at first sight.  Your knowing eyes and loving expression took hold of our hearts and never let us go.


One of the brightest points of our every day is your precious smile.  What a handsome, happy little man you've become. We love how determined you are; how you know exactly what it is that you want and you don't waiver.  You're so smart and inquisitive, and you love to figure things out for yourself, and learn how things work. We admire that about you.  Your mind is always working and learning!

You're our furniture climber and our mischief maker.  You cut those beautiful blue eyes at us and give us the cutest smile and all is forgiven.  You dance, you run, you jump, you look for adventure.  And in turn, every single day is an adventure for us, as well.


You have a sweet, gentle side.  That same side that was so apparent when you were just minutes old, snuggling your mama's cheek.  You give the best Eskimo kisses, you flirt shamelessly and you blow kisses (I wish I could bottle them).  Be still, my heart.  I think the best time for us, though, is bedtime.  All is calm and you snuggle into our laps to read a story and in that moment, time stands still. 


Everyday with you is beautiful.  You teach us so much, precious boy, and we are beyond grateful that God chose us to be your parents.  We love you to the moon and back!


All of our love,
Mama and Daddy
