Dearest Tyler, T-Cat, TJ, Buckaroo, HoneyBunny, Sweet Pea, and Buddy,
I'm sitting here waiting for the banana split cupcakes to finish baking and I really can't believe I'm baking dessert for your THIRD birthday. On this night three years ago I never could have imagined just how much my life was about to change. The moment I saw you that beautiful June evening it was love at first sight. It was all-consuming. It was powerful. It was God's work at his finest. You became my connection between Heaven and Earth. Tyler, you also gave me the greatest gift in the world that June evening. I became a Mom, your Mommy. And at that moment I made a deal with God and myself. I will do whatever it is in my power to protect you, keep you safe, and most importantly give you pure unconditional love.
In those first days and weeks, we spent endless moments gazing into your eyes hardly believing our love could produce such a beautiful baby. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine the stage we're in today. You are now able to feed yourself, go to the bathroom on the potty, play in the bath, have conversations with us, ask endless series of why questions, "rhyme time", play, show passion, show empathy, pray, and show love. The list goes on and on and on. You LOVE anything with wheels including tractors, cars, trucks, and trains. The past month or so, you have become most interested with rescuing people/animals/family. Helping people is your specialty. Firemen and police officers are quite fascinating to you. We can sit and read together for hours. You love Sesame Street and Curious George. You have already developed a wonderful sense of humor. And, you've turned into an incredible big brother (a joy to watch!). We're getting ready for the start of summer and I can just feel it's going to be a very special one. The four of us are going to have a magical time being together.
If there is one wish I could give you on your third birthday, it's a wish to always, always know you have a Mommy and a Daddy that will forever fully and completely love you. It's simple and it's pure. We loved you yesterday, we love you more today, and we will love you even more tomorrow. Happy Birthday Buddy!!! We love you.
