I don’t know how it is possible you are already two; I clearly remember just yesterday being the day you were born.
So many changes the last year, heck, the last three months. Your undying love for your bike; your game of playing helmet with papsy’s helmet; your own give-mama-a-heart-attack version of Road Bike Party; your insistence on dressing up in mama’s sweaty running gear the moment she walks through the door; the new sentences exiting your mouth every day; your off-key, super loud singing (makes mama proud!); your desire to help that more often than not turns into more work for us; your recital of Don’t Let The Pigeon Stay Up Late, usually done while making a “big piece” on the potty; your go-go-goness from the moment you wake up to the moment your head hits the crib at night – all fill my heart with giddy wings of butterfly happiness.
Singing Happy Birthday with added lyrics about cake… you like cake… a lot!
Every day is better than the last because of you <3
“For dinner on my birthday, shall I tell you what I chose? Hot noodles made from poodles on a slice of garden hose. And a rather smelly jelly made from armadillo’s toes. The jelly is delicious, but you have to hold your nose!”

Lovely. Lyrical.
A dee-LIGHTFUL blog 🙂 A keeper for sure 🙂
He’s TWO!? But… but… I remember when you were dealing with jerky doctors before he was born!
