Three!

Dear Hudson,


Three years ago today my life changed forever. The second I held you I knew I would never be the same. Over the past three years you have grown to be such an amazing little boy. Not a day goes by when I don't feel overwhelmingly proud to be your mommy. You have such a kind and big heart. You are very sensitive (I know where you get that) and you love to talk and make people laugh. When I tell you goodnight you tap the pillow next to you and smile. You don't have to say a word, I know what this means. You want mommy to lay down and cuddle with you. No matter what I have to do that night, it can always wait. This time in our day is by far my favorite. I know a day will come when you won't want to do this anymore and I want to take these moments in and remember them forever. Another thing that makes me proud is how close we are, yet you are so independent. You LOVE to be with mommy, but you also are just fine going to preschool on Tuesdays all by yourself (you call it I self). When I pick you up your smile lights up the room as you run to me. It's the perfect balance. The day that I brought Bennett home form the hospital was one of my proudest moment yet. You were truly over the moon excited to see mommy and daddy and to meet your little brother. From that day on you have been such an amazing big brother. The first thing you say when we come downstairs each morning is "where is Bennett?", you always run to him when he cries and you love to give him hugs and kisses. The way Bennett watches you tells me that he thinks you're as wonderful as I do. I'm so excited to watch you grow into a "big boy" and I'm thrilled that Bennett has such an amazing role model to follow. Thank you for being you and thank you for being my baby. I love you more than you will ever know.


Love,


Mommy
