I love your prayers at night as you thank God for Daddy and for your birthday when he comes home. You have brought so much love and joy into my life!!
I can't believe that you were ever this little....well actually being 9lbs 10 oz... isn't quite that little.. you actually looked like a toddler next to all the other preemies that seemed to be born on the same day!! You were worth every pound that I gained (all 65)!!!

Happy 1st Birthday!!
Happy 2nd Birthday!!!!
Happy 3rd Birthday!!
Connor, there are so many things that make my heart melt!!! Here are some of the things that I pray never change...
I LOVE......
- When you wake up in the morning and call my name and want me to pick you up from your bed for a morning hug!!
- How when I tuck you in bed at night and you tell me "Sweet Dreams"!
- How you always ask me if I am happy!! (You know what Connor - you make me happy)
- How a kiss from me can make every "owie" feel better!
- When you walk into my room as I am getting ready and you tell me how pretty I am.
- That your eyes light up when you talk about your Dad!
- That you ask me about heaven and love Jesus!!
- How you sing Veggie tales in the car or know the words to the music on Spirit 105.3
- The stories that you tell - I never knew that you and your Dad saw a talking whale!!
- That you want to be a Navy pilot like your Daddy!
- Your zest for life and the "ALL-BOY" mentality you have!
- How you can make Cooper believe that the toy that you have is better than the toy he has so you can have it!!! (You definitely take after your mama)
- What a great BIG brother you are! He looks up to you! You keep sticking up for him!!
You have brought raising a boy an adventure:
You are the best spidey-pirate ever!!! Keep running around the house with your pirate noises...
I wonder...
- If when you get older you will still want me to carry you to the car when it is raining so your shoes don't get wet!
- If you will still yell for me when you go potty because you are amazed at the bubbles you make!
- If I will always think of you as a little boy at every milestone in your life.....as I watched you receive your certificate for preschool... I wished that I could freeze that moment so you would always stay this young!
Connor, I pray that you will live life to the fullest and not take a single moment for granted. I pray that you will grow up knowing and loving the Lord! I am so proud of you and am blessed to be your Mama!!!
xoxo

I'm remembering when you made frog cupcakes (for Coop's birhtday), but we have more pictures of Connor eating his "this won't make you sick one" because he had so much icing all over his face! Love the memories!
