Happy Third Birthday

It is officially your birthday since it is just after midnight.
And Kavaun, for your birthday I will make a few proclamations:

  1. You, my boy, are everything that is great in my world
  2. You have helped me change into a whole new version of me
  3. You are my best buddy
Some things we have been doing a lot of lately:
  • Playing Monster. This is where you and I crawl around on the floor grunting, high-fiving and "threatening" to get mama as a team of monsters. 
  • You have been singing a ton! Today you imitated your music teacher, Ms. Laura, and you instructed class saying things like, "nice job" and "now we will will sing a new song"
  • Still dancing
  • Couch jumping!
  • Circle running!
  • Swinging in our backyard
  • Pointing out airplanes all the time. You can spot even the smallest cloud-hidden planes up there and you hear them when I do not even notice them at all.
  • Kisses - the rain kiss before bed and multiple kisses when you want to stall from doing something.
Happy Birthday Buddy. Today when you hugged me and said, "I love you baba" I was reminded again that there is nothing quite like this. Nothing.

I love you too... and I also love mama (you keep asking each of us if we love the other and if we love Kavaun)

- Baba

Happy Birthday practice

  • Listening to Kavaun and Beata practice singing Happy Birthday for his upcoming third birthday is sweet.
  • Kavaun claims he wants to use the potty when he turns three. I cannot wait.
