Dear Baby E,

I can hardly call you a baby anymore. Today you turned five and I am still trying to grasp how that can possibly be. I still remember in vivid detail the day that you were born. You are a blessing and a gift to our dear family, and I have never met anyone as unique and interesting as you. I love the way that you see the world differently and you aren’t afraid to say it. I enjoy watching you march to your own drum. I pray you always keep your sense of individuality, your confidence, and your deep love for the people closest to you. You have so much to offer the world and I know you are going to do great things!

Happy Birthday, my dear sweet boy. We love you more than you can possibly imagine. May Christ watch over you and draw you ever closer to Him. Sweet dreams.

Love,

mommy
