Love Note to my Children ~ Mark

Dear Mark,

Your smile melts my heart. I love how your eyes sparkle and those perfect cherry cheeks appear, perfect for pinching. I'll never forget the day I first saw your hair curl. You were around 12 months old and I was giving you a bath. I was so excited that I called Daddy to come see. You are so very handsome and will be sure to steal a girl's heart one day. Though I must say, you are already quite a flirt and (Eh-Hem) have your eye on older women! I've seen you flirt with teenagers. That's my boy!
I love how thoughtful you are. You take care of those that love you. When you offered to help grandma down the stairs that day, you made me so proud. How can a 2.5 year old be so compassionate?
You are super smart, learning words in leaps and bounds lately. You are a whiz at Peezles (oh how miss how you used to say puzzles). You love to count, sing songs, and Fire Fighters! How you care about other's I could definitely see you choosing that as a career (but please don't, I'd worry about you too much).
You love to dance and boy do you have rhythm! My favorite move is the shoulder roll.
You always say please and thank you, "Oh, Thank you" to be exact. You open the fridge now on your own to get juice and for you and Ria. Oh yes, you always remember your Ria.
I never believed that I could be so close to my son, but you, Mark, I have a close bond. Your expressive eyes and juicy kisses tell me all.
I love you, my handsome boy, very very much.
Love, Mommy
