Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Bear!

You turned 3 today. It's just before midnight, May 26, 2014. You woke up this morning and the first words I heard you say were the same as every other morning, "Daddy, can I watch a show?". We spent the morning scrambling to clean the house, then we went to the grocery store to buy sushi and some sodas and then your Grandma, Great-Grandma, Uncle Jeremiah and Haley Myers-Brannon came by the house. It was raining all day, with some thunder and lightning. After some homemade from scratch strawberry cake and store bought ice cream, we opened your presents. You got a new soccer ball, a t-ball set, some toys to dig in the dirt with and some water guns. Obviously we went outside to try out all of your new stuff. You squirted me in the crotch and chased me around the yard. It was a ton of fun. You showed a bit of a knack for hitting that baseball, which is intriguing to see if anything comes of that. You also kick that ball really well too. Most importantly, you just bring a ton of joy to our hearts and to our family. You do throw some pretty gnarly tantrums when you don't get what you want or if you're super tired, but you bounce back quick. The biggest thing I want you to know is that you're super loved. Your mom loves you a tremendous deal and she takes great care of you. I think you're pretty great. Your brother Boss even seems to like you, though not as much as crazy milk.
Happy Birthday Son, way to be 3!
