When having a two year old there are many times you think, Please!! For the love of all things Holy will you stop doing/saying that. Sometimes we get wrapped up in their extra energetic, curious, mischievous behavior that we don't necessarily sit and relish in the things they do and say that we never want to stop. Laying in my bed with my darling little stinker at an entirely TOO early of an hour this morning I would usually be slightly irritated because I'm half awake and desperately need 20 more minutes. This morning I wound up being happy and content as soon as I snuggled in next to him and he held out his little hand for mine and said "hold my hand mommy" Which brings me to a small list of the thousands of things I want to keep forever and ever.
Hand Holding, please don't stop reaching for my hand because some day I am going to need to reach out for yours for help.
Saying Good Morning Mommy, Honestly what better way to start your day.
When he says "I just want you mommy" I really need to stop what I'm doing every time and just hold him, he won't be small enough to hold for much longer.
Reading Stories, books are so very important in our house, never stop reading little man books are the windows to other worlds and open your mind up vastly to new things.
Being polite and using manners, you will need this your whole life and you need to be above all else a good person who is kind to others.
Using your imagination and being creative, This will make you a happy child and will help you dream big dreams in the future.
When you say "I love you TOO much" Please still say that when you're a teenager and I have said no to you my first "I hate you" will surely crush me.
When you say "Daddy you're my Hero" please always view him this way he has already done so much for me before we had you and continues to do so much every day. He should always be a hero in our eyes.
Quoting Movies, your Daddy does it all the time and I so very much love seeing all your similarities.
Cuddling in mommy's bed in the morning or climbing in to see daddy on his days off , I know this will have to stop as it will be quite strange if you do this when you are older but for now we love it and it is always welcome.
Never stop being a loving happy person, the way you take to people and can make anyone in any situation smile and fall in love with you is extremely precious to me. From the moment I found out you were in my tummy, the moment we all laid eyes on you for the very first time and to now I just knew how truly special you are. Never ever stop being you kiddo because you are one heck of an amazing little boy.
Honestly I could sit in this chair and type for days all of the things I love about my little boy and hope that never dissipate with time and the happenings of life. A parents only real wish for their child is that they are happy healthy and a good person at the end of the day, and if he turns out anything like he is now I would have to say his father and I have done an amazing job.
