Oh my Little Tanners

You've grown up big and every day I look at you in wonder. But every day, you remind me you're always my little boy at heart.



Maybe it's the way you sweetly stroke my hand or face when signing you bedtime songs or run into my room first thing in the morning to smoother me in hugs and kisses.

Or when you get sad when you can't have things your way, afterwards, you just want me to hold you [or your hand if we're in the car] and whisper to you how much I love you.

Or just always want to be right next to me. When we were playing with Legos the other day, I told you I had to sit up on the couch rather than lay on the floor since my back was hurting. You told me, "It's okay Mommy. My back hurts too. I'll come sit by you!!"


When I'm around, everyone else seems to dissappear and only mommy can help you. And you make sure everyone talks to me nicely or they're going to hear about it from you.

When I come home from work, you'll ask me, "Did you miss me?" And I'll say, "Yes, of course, I love you so much!" And you always respond, "Well, now you don't have to cause I'm right here!"


Or maybe it's because today you told me I was your best friend. And I'm sure the yummy ice cream treat I let you have had nothing to do with it.

While another little girl will be entering our hearts and home soon, just wanted to let you know you are loved, forever and always!!

Love,
Your Mommy
