Someone special just turned two......



Happy Birthday Sweet Finn!
It was a special day!  A day filled with fun at the beach, presents, chocolate cake (the first one EVER that I didn't make), balloons and songs.  We sang Happy Birthday several times in French and English because Finn enjoyed it so much.  Where does the time go?  In someways it feels like he has been here forever and in other ways I feel like his birth was just a week ago.  Sometimes I look at the giant dangly part baby/part boy that he is, and wonder where my teeny tiny baby went, the one that couldn't make his crib jump across the room.

Ah my baby boy, what would we do without you?  Any thought I ever had of not having enough for a third baby went right out the window the minute you were born.  You are so very loved by your Mama and Dada and your big brothers.  You bring laughter and excitement and joy to us every day.  We love your 'stink eye', the way you call Daddy with what sounds like an English accent, how you already ask 'why?'.

A sample conversation with Finn:
Mama: Finn, please sit down on your chair.
Finn: Why?
Mama: So you won't fall and get hurt.
Finn: Oh.

We love your dance moves and the way you say 'YAY' when you are excited.  We love your perspective and your eagerness to explore and try new things.

I love you to bits!


Mama

Off to make more adventure.......
