Easton,
Last night I put a three year old boy to bed and woke up to a four year old little man! You are growing so fast Easton boy. Each day you surprise us
with the things you are learning. You are a SPONGE. You hear and see everything. You have lots of questions about everything you see, hear, feel, and smell. You are busy. You have big ideas in mind and you always make your ideas a reality. Sometimes this scares Mommy & Daddy when your ideas include leaving the house or spray painting the basement....and the dog....bright red. You are a preschooler now. You love learning and exploring with friends. Winter is tough for you. You can't stand being cooped up! You have always been my out and about boy, even if its running endless errands. I love taking you with me to run errands because you are so much fun and such a good sport! And we have our best conversations in the car. It is Mommy's favorite.You are a builder. You have wonderful ideas for building projects and we are constantly amazed at how you bring your ideas to life. You can build with ANY material, there are no limits to your creativity. You love anything with a motor: trains, trucks, tractors, planes, motorcycles, helicopters, etc.
You are determined and persistent. You are going to do big things my boy, BIG things. Whether or not there is a way, you will find it! I have no doubts that you will accomplish what you set your mind to.
You are an avid camper. You have had SO many campouts with Daddy this year and a few with our whole family. You love camping. You talk about it every single day. You are just like your Daddy, you love being outdoors, in the mountains, in dirt, COVERED in dirt. You love adventures, 4wheeling rides, motorcycle rides, hiking, and exploring. You do NOT like moose.
You are a big brother, times two. You are a fantastic big brother. You are always looking after your baby brother, sharing your toys, replacing his binky. You love your sister, most days. You two have so much fun together and get into so much trouble. Your reach things for her she can't get to. She squishes into little nooks to get things you can't get to. You love chasing eachother, sliding bean bags, watching movies together, going on walks, and destroying my bathroom. You really love that she is getting bigger and able to play more games with you.
You, my boy, have a big heart. You care about everyone and every living thing. You ask questions like, "Mommy are you sad?" Or "Oh it's okay Kinley sweetheart, I take care of you". You are a tough army guy with a big soft heart.
Easton, you are our miracle. We prayed for you for so long. We waited so anxiously for you. We are so grateful every single day that through the great love and faith of an incredible woman and the guidance of our Heavenly Father you are our son. We cannot fathom any greater blessing than that.
We love you son!
Mommy & Daddy
