i am so excited to be starting a new blog circle this year relating to something very special to me: letters to our children…and i am participating in this with some of my favorite photography buds…love this group. writing letters to my children is something i have been very bad about in the past & it has become my new years resolution to become better with documenting & writing. this month i’m writing to my little miles 🙂 be sure to complete the blog circle all the way around…check out my talented friend amanda norton & leave her some love!
dear miles.
you have no idea how perfect i think you are. from the moment you were born you fit perfectly into this family, brought us all closer & made us all feel complete. “they” say that “social smiling” doesn’t start until 2 months old, but i swear you came out smiling from the start & never stopped. you have this uncanny ability to make people happy. i have caught you on numerous occasions patting the back of a stranger in a store & smiling at them when they turn around. i know you are only 10 months old but you LOVE LIFE & it’s contagious in the best way possible. your garrett LOVES you…we all do…but he adores you. i love to watch you guys interact…i had no idea it would be this early that you’d be hanging out with him at his train table playing cars (or putting them in your mouth at least) with him. i love the way you dance to music, the way you laugh, the way you aren’t scared of your 90 pound doggies, the way you sleep with your butt up in the air, the way your hair has a mind of it’s own, the way you smile & peek at me over daddy’s shoulder when he’s carrying you, the way you are patient & independent but snuggly all at the same time, the way you make funny faces when you hear strange noises…i even like the way you wake up at night, because even though me & daddy would love to get some sleep, seeing your sweet face is a great feeling no matter what time of the day it is. i love the way you are my red headed little surprise…we thought you were a girl when you were in my belly but i am soooo glad you are who you are, because you are PERFECT to me & life would not be the same without you. i am so lucky.
love.
mommy
