Happy birthday, Brycie Bryce! You are a whole year old today! I am so glad you are in our family, sweet heart. You have reached so many milestones this year: first smiles, first giggles, sitting up, crawling, walking and now you aren't content with anything slower than a run. You are adored, son. Your older brother loves to make you laugh and you seek him out at any opportunity. Your father sometimes squeezes you a little too tight when he gets home from work just to hear your happy squeals. Your mother cuddles you a little too often for your liking sometimes, but she's just getting them in while you still fit on her lap. You're growing so fast, you'll soon outgrow her lap, son! You're already wearing 18 month old shirts and even then, some of them are too short. Your sweet little legs are still in 9-12 month shorts, though. We love to see you dink dink dink around the house chasing your brother or pulling the books off the shelves. You love to look at books, though you are too impatient to hear the words read to you. I've never seen your beat for love of stuffed animals and blankets. You get so excited when you find a soft blanket and you have to have one when you go to bed. Stuffed animals are usually preferred to cars, unless Derek gives you one of his cars. Bryce, I hope you always remember that you a son of God. He loves you, we love you and we're so grateful that He sent you to us. Happy birthday, sweet heart!
Birthday burgers for the birthday boy! Cake will be this weekend. :)
