Dear Michael,
As I sit here and write this, my heart pounds at the notion that time passes at such warp speed, why oh why can't I freeze time! You have been the best, most delicious baby boy any one can ask for. You love to give out kisses, but only to the select few lucky ones, you do so by snuggling up to our cheek, mouth wide opened in full drool, shaking your head from side to side while letting out the most delightful coo! Mommy melts..(daddy cries)!
You have the most beautiful deep colored eyes, the color is impossible to describe, it is like liquid brown and green combined, your eyelashes are so long, and I am so envious of your eyebrows, those are some great eyebrows.
All four of you upper teeth broke through the same day! You barely even winced, you are the bravest little thing. You love to play with the computer and are not altogether happy when we have to take it away from you, but you quickly get over it. Your new favorite thing to do is stand up in your crib after we've put you down for bed, we put you down you bounce back up, laughing, down you go...up you go, and down and up....it takes you a LONG time to tire, but eventually you do and it sleepy time for all.
You love to watch Sesame Street every morning, you love Elmo and Mr. Noodle the best! There is nothing in this world sweeter than the sound of your giggle, oh how we love the sound of your giggle, it is joy in the purest form!
Bella and Simba both love you, but you have a very special place in Bella's heart, she never leaves your side, she has morphed from a cat into a guard dog...she gets very mad at me when I have to aspirate the boogies out of your nose...you hate it and cry and that makes her sad and mad, I hope they will live long enough for you to have a memory of them.
You are still in mommy and daddy's room, and many nights you sleep in our bed and later we put you in your crib. Words can not explain the feeling of gratitude I feel every morning when I awake to find your smiling face peering over at me...I instantly pop up (tripping over myself to get to you), swoop you up, and proceed to smother you with a million hugs and kisses all the while you laugh and smile and let me kiss and hug you for as long as I please. Oh, I how I do hope you always let me do that! We love you Boobie!!!
