Dear Punky,

I cannot believe you are four years old!   It seems like yesterday when I first held you in the hospital…where has the time gone?

You amaze me every single day.   There isn’t a day that I am not in awe of something you do or say.   There isn’t a day that I don’t thank God for blessing my life by bringing you into it!  You are an amazing little boy.  You’re so sweet, sensitive, and sincere.   You try so hard at everything you do.  You absolutely love your friends and family…and do lots of nice things for them each day.  I know you make Gwandma Holly’s morning when you talk with her on the phone.  I love listening to you share your thoughts with her.   

You are quite the explorer.  You want to know how things work and why things happen.  You worry about things alot….like NAPS!  You keep telling me you don’t want to grow up, but as I watch you explore new experiences, you are gaining confidence and independence.   There isn’t a day that goes by that I am not proud to be your mommy.

You whispered to me the other night that your favorite time of every day is when we snuggle at bed time.  That’s mine too, sweetie!   I love hearing you whisper in the dark about your thoughts, ideas, and experiences from the day. 

I love you to the moon and back…forever…..and ever!

Love,

Mama
