To my darling son

It amazes me how much you've grown - all the things you can do by yourself, the little things that fascinate you.

One of your favorite things is dancing...to Justin Timberlake's Sexyback.  During Ellen DeGeneres' dancing sequence, you'll happily dance along with her.

You're also SO NEAT.  The other day, on our walk, we saw some rocks that had been pushed out of its boundaries (on someone's property) and you picked up the stray rocks and put them back where they belonged.  You also love to help clean.  The other day, when I was dusting, you wanted to help, so I gave you a rag and you started wiping things: the dishwasher, the cabinets, the refrigerator.

But I have to say that probably one of your most favorite things is CARS - anything with wheels.  You love to push the cars and trucks around the house.  Also, you'll change it up and push around the baby stroller.  Outside, you'll alternate from pushing the grocery cart and the bus on our walks.

You love opening and closing things.  Easter was a great example.  You wanted to open the eggs (the plastic ones) to see what was in there.  You happily ate the goldfish crackers you found in some and smiled when you found small cars in the large eggs.

At the park, you love to swing, and swing, and swing.  You also love to climb things.  The other day at the park, you wanted to climb the large structures rather than play on the 2-5 year old structure.  You definitely have no fear.
