Mister Man,
Another year has quickly gone by, and here I am sitting in the exact same spot at almost the exact same time writing you your 2nd birthday post. This year has been amazing! I tell everyone I know that, “Boys are so different…they should come with a manual!” There are times when you (and Una) put the “Crazy” in “Crazytown” around here, but we’ll take it. It’s also quite amazing how you can make my heart smile even when you’re telling me, “sorry” and giving me a hug after being in timeout. Daddy and I have watched you go from your taking your very first step to hopping everywhere you go! You always amaze us with the things you can do and the things you say. You are the cutest boy I’ve ever known, and many times, I could get lost staring at your round little face…taking in every little expression you make. You truly are, “so big.” This time last year, the feeling Momma and Daddy had was, “Whew, we made it through alive.” This year it’s been, “Wow-it’s gone so fast and what’s next?!” Your smile is still captivating (and muppet-like), your laugh is still infectious, your snuggles still awesome, and the way you and Morgan are brother and sister, well, that’s just awesome. Happy Birthday, Parker.

Love, Dada and Momma
