THREE!

happy happy happy third birthday, link! we have celebrated this day off and on this entire month, but the official day is finally here. sweet boy, i know this year is going to be a big one for you and we are about to start it off with a BANG with your baby sister coming exactly a week from today (that's the plan, at least!). and i know as much as we are trying to prepare you for it, this will be a big change for you. regardless, you guys will be best pals in no time and you will be a great big brother.

we are so proud of the little man you are becoming. it seems almost like a switch going off, right before our eyes, that in the last few weeks you have really matured. three looks good on you, little buddy. i never knew i could hear the words, "mama, what's that?" seven thousand times in one day and still answer the question every single time with a smile on my face. you are our little curious george and i love seeing you take it all in.

so here we are, ready to tackle another great year with you. i am so thankful for your sweet heart and contagious smile. you are the apple of your mama's eye!
