First, Happy Birthday to the wonderful Mrs. Susan today! We hope it’s a Fantastic Friday for you!
Second, On Sunday, Maxwell will be 5! How did we get to FIVE?! It’s all gone too fast…
Just born…
One year old…
Two years old…
Three years old…
Four years old…
and now FIVE YEARS OLD!
I don’t know how to describe how much I love him. I’m just amazed at how smart and curious and sweet he is. He loves tigers and fire trucks and wants to learn as much about everything as he possibly can. He’s super observant of the world around him and always taking in information that he’ll ask me about later. He’s sensitive and a people pleaser and wants to do things right. He’s a rule follower and does not like to get into trouble. He’s precocious – so precocious. He talks to my adult friends (and really any adult) in such a mature way – definitely beyond his little 5 years! He loves his buddies – Lila, Max, Towns – but his brother and sister are total tops in his book. Baby Mantha might be his most favorite person on this earth and he would rather play with Spencey than anyone else. He’s caring and kind and thoughtful. He is such a good, good kid.
And while he is FIVE…
he’s still just five and that’s still little. He’s so mature for his age that I often have to stop and remind myself that he’s ONLY five and he’s still got a lot of growing up to do. I’m just doing my best to enjoy every second.
