Not so terrible… two!
In a matter of hours my son will be two years old. I am so proud of him. He is an amazing, good-natured kid. Everyday I think I could not possibly love him more, and then a new day dawns and proves me wrong.
As he gets older (or more significantly, as I get older) I will forget the details of who he is today. I won’t remember the small things that make him, him right now.
- His favourite colour is orange
- His favourite dinosaur is the triceratops
- His favourite letter is W
- He loves to eat fruit, specifically blueberries
- He loves to play with cars, trucks, trains, and anything that moves
- He is naturally athletic and has an amazing arm
- In bed, he needs his 3 giraffes, 2 monkeys, and one baby piled around him
- His favourite saying is “Boom shaka, Boom!”
Every day is a new adventure and I welcome each one (even though they are not always fun). I anticipate and look forward to seeing him grow and learn and carve out his own place in this world.
Happy Birthday, Bubs!

And this is why I love blogging – and why I’ve turned my blog into books. Such great memories
And happy birthday, sweet Q!

Happy Birthday to your little man! My son is 3.5 and I have loved every minute of it, but from 2 on, they really start to blossom in their own little way. I just want him to stop growing up so fast, ya know what I mean? Anywho, your Q is adorable. And Happy Birthday to him!!

I try to write down my sons favourite things every once in a while as well, you THINK you will never forget things but as time goes on, unfortuately we do!
Happy Birthday and I agree with Christine, you are both so lucky to have each other.

Congratulations on the awesome age of 2! I think it’s exciting and fitting that his favorite dinosaur is the “triceratops” because it sounds like “sarah!”
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Q!

My little boy just turned 2 on Sunday. He also loves anything that moves-he got a wooden train set for his birthday and loves it!! Happy Birthday!!

I wish him a wonderful birthday! My mom has little books laying around with details like that about us. Apparently, at age 3 I was addicted to those magnetic letters.
Visiting from SITS, have a great day!

Happy belated birthday to your little guy!
One question: can we have a playdate? My older son is 2 1/2 and he and your son share a favorite color, a favorite dinosaur, a favorite fruit, a passion for things that go, and a tendency to surround themselves with a menagerie in bed. I’d say that’s the makings of a beautiful friendship!

Sounds like they’d get along splendidly!

W! that’s my niece’s favorite too. DOUBLE UUUU she likes to say. ha ha
A big happy belated birthday to your son
