Dear Chris

Hey, Babe-

Can you believe it's already been two years since we became parents for the first time?
How can our itty bitty, 5 lb 9 oz baby boy already be 2?!

February 25, 2011 was a pretty awesome day.
One of the best!
Remember how worried, excited & happy you were all at the same time?
And how we knew his name would be Campbell 
as soon as we saw his perfect little face?

He sure has rocked our world in these past two years.
Now he has a little brother who does the same.
In a good way... most of the time :)

Thank you for making my dream of being a mom come true.
You are a great dad & I am so thankful to share a family with you.

Love you.

xoxo-
Me

P.S. What do you think our family will look like on his 3rd birthday?

Annoying Mom Post

I hope Campbell is always as proud of himself when he concurs new challenges, 
as he is now, when he finishes a puzzle all by himself.
I hope he continues to be so eager to share his excitement with others. 
I hope he always finds joy in dancing crazy & being silly. 

I hope Emerson is always so content with life.
I hope he always finds it so easy to smile & laugh. 
I hope his eyes always shine as bright as they do now when he looks at his brother. 

I hope they will both know that their story is important... 
that they have a purpose... 
that they are children of God
 ...who wants them to do well, 
make good decisions, 
love others as themselves 
& live life to the fullest. 
...that they will find the good in every situation. 
...that they will be thankful for the lives they have been blessed with
& never, never, never. ever. give up. 

I hope they love Jesus.
...that they find joy in following his word 
& example of serving others.


I hope they will always know that their mom loves them. 
Loves them with her whole heart.
...that I will be there for them.
 Always. 
No matter what.
