Am I Three??

Hard to believe but my very special first born son is three years old! We could hear him waking up on his birthday so we left a balloon and a present outside his door and watched him walk into the hallway. "Oh! A Balloon!" He exclaimed, and we quickly informed him that it was his birthday today (we had been hyping it up for a couple of weeks now) so he was really excited when he realized the day had finally arrived. "It's my birthday today? Am I three?" He squealed. How adorable! That morning he opened his presents from us and was really excited to get a "Larry the Cucumber" and "Bob the Tomato". Almost immediately he went into acting out the opening scene of his Veggie Tales movie...

Well, we continued to celebrate his birthday at my parent's house where we had his party, but more on that later.

So what can I say about three-year-old-Luke. Well he's extremely thoughtful, shockingly observant, hilariously imitative, sensitive, very talkative (when he's comfortable), and a Daddy's boy (but who could blame him?). I call him my little Rainman because he has memory that amazes me daily - he definitely did NOT get that from me! :) He loves to go outside any chance he gets. He has grown into SUCH a good little boy, I feel so lucky to be his Mom. He has his stubborn moments, but most of the time he is very well behaved and pretty easy to "handle" when it comes down to it. It's so hard to sum up such a big personality, but he is our joy and he is incredibly loved by his proud parents. Love you Lukey! Happy 3rd Birthday!
