today marked golden birthday #2 for our family this year
alex turned FIVE on the FIFTH!!

it seems crazy to think that my 'baby' is FIVE!
BUT ...
as he reminded me, and everyone else we saw today,
he is stronger
he is WAY faster
he is smarter
and he has bigger muscles
all because today HE IS FIVE!
alex ...
there are SO many things i love about you
but since today is all about the number FIVE ...
i'm going to focus on FIVE
ONE.
i love your big brown eyes
i love how expressive you are
and
i love how those big brown eyes light up when you are telling a story
TWO.
i love watching you be passionate about the things you love :
baseball
your friends
watching your favorite shows
(which is anything on nick jr, phinneas and ferb, looney toons, and tom&jerry)
basketball
jumping on the trampoline
playing your DS
chewy
swimming
playing webkinz
no matter what it is
you make it fun and aren't afraid of trying new things
THREE.
i love how much you love drew and ben
i love that you want to dress like them
do things just like them
and
be with them ...
always.
FOUR.
i love that you always want to be with me
yet aren't scared to try new things
you are SO brave.
you love to meet new friends.
you can start up a conversation with anyone
and
you are SO excited for kindergarten.
FIVE.
i LOVE that you love to snuggle.
i love that you come in and give me good morning hugs
although sometimes i wish it wasn't QUITE so early
i love that you know when i'm sad and know how much a hug means
i love that at night a snuggle from me can put you so quickly to sleep
and
i love how throughout the day
your mood can so easily change with just a few snuggles.
you are such a special little FIVE year old.
my favorite little five year old, actually ;)
we are SO blessed to have you as part of our family.
i hope you had a wonderful birthday, little buddy
and
i hope that your whole year of being five will be simply golden.
happy birthday, alex.
we LOVE you.
