Happy Birthday, Ethan! You are FOUR years old---You know it, we know it, and even strangers know it now, because you are just SO proud to be FOUR!!
I always knew I wanted to be a mother. That's all I ever wanted to be. And then I had you.....and I knew that is what God intended me to be: not just any mother, but yours. How blessed am I to call you my son! You made my dreams come true, my big man! At four years old, you surprise me daily. Your thoughtfulness is overwhelming and makes my heart so happy. Your questions and curiosity are admirable. Your ability to learn quickly and intelligence completely baffles me. Your imagination is truly out of this world. Your child-like faith is something I aspire to have everyday. The energy you possess is addictive and I can't get enough of it(well, maybe around naptime....I could use a rest myself!).
I think my most favorite conversation I've ever had with you was about these little "sun spots" speckled on your skin. You noticed a spot one day and asked me what it was and without hesitation I responded, "Those are what we call an angel kiss. When you are asleep, angels come and give you kisses and leave those little spots." Your eyes lit up and I took you to the bathroom to show you ALL the angel kisses on you. When you had asked me that question, I didn't even hesitate with the answer, because I know in my heart you have the most special angel watching over you. You are such a special boy & I hope you enjoyed every minute of your birthday celebration. I promise you this son; I will celebrate YOU every day. Mommy loves you!
