The sweetest boy there ever was. The best friend. My Tenderheart Lion (any 1980s Care Bear Cousin fans out there?)
At 4 years old, your absolute favorite things are trucks and all things construction, the color orange (with green as a close second), the number six, your baby brother, your daddy, and your "crew".
You love salty snacks and prune juice.
You hate cold sheets...soft fleece sheets are where it's at for you. You hate sleeping with socks on.
You always sleep with Momo (rubbing the "better" ears), Ellie, and Rubble.
You are HILARIOUS. And I mean that. You have your dads wit and quick responses. You make people stop in their tracks with your hilarious ways.
You are shy, and wary of others, but once you get to know people, you are all in.
You are genuine.
You are my helper boy.
You have a way of speaking with your head and using your hands that is adorable. You also say words like "yogrit" and "togedder", and I will cry when you say them the "right" way.
You are incredibly smart. Your memory is unlike anyone's I have ever met. You apply everything you learn immediately in your life.
You have the most beautiful little voice, but rarely sing. When you do sing, it moves me to tears...and when you sing "sunshine" to Carter, he immediately stops crying.
You ask fantastic questions. Mommy and Daddy will continue to learn because of you.
You have the most FORGIVING heart. I am not a perfect mommy, and you accept my faults.
You truly appreciate the beauty in the world around you.
You make me grateful for every single second I have with you.
You are my dream come true, a gift to all around you.
I wish time would slow down just a little bit. If I could, I would go back to your baby self just to hold you longer. But, I just love seeing you grow and learning who you are. Each day just gets better with you.
We love you, Landon. Always, always, always....forever and ever and ever.
