We cannot even begin to tell you how much joy you have brought to our lives this past year. We have had so much fun cheering on each new milestone: your 1st smile, rolling over, rolling a ball, crawling, walking...this list is endless. But it's the moments in between that we wish we could relive all over again--- the cute "ooo" face you made as an infant, going out to the mall as a family, visiting your room at night to see your knees tucked under you and your little bottom in the air as you slept, waking you up at night just to see if you would sleep on our chest one more time, cuddling with you while we gave you your morning bottle and watched the morning news, going on evening walks with you in the Baby Bjorn, wrestling with you even though you were way to little. We're so grateful for all the memories of this first year and are just as excited see you grow and develop during this next year. We pray that you not only grow developmentally and physically but also in your understanding of God and in your character. Even now you can bless people with your laughs, smiles, hugs and kisses. We pray that this next year you will continue to grow in your kindness and love for others. We love you so much!!! Happy 1st Birthday, Mark (aka little Man, aka buddy, aka our sweet little boy)
Daddy and Momma :-)
