May the Fourth be with you

Today is Star Wars day.

My little man turned 2 today.

Beau - you are such a joy. I have loved this first two years of your life. I would have you ten times over. I love your happy spirit, your ready laughter, your wonder of the world around you. I love watching you grow into yourself, to see you learning new words, new skills; both of us marvelling at your abilities.

People are drawn to you, you are easy to love. You love to make others laugh, and you laugh along with them. You have charmed your way into the hearts of many already, and you are only 729 days old!

You are full of beans, you love to chase, and jump (even though you haven't quite mastered it yet). You love babies and cuddle them at every opportunity. You are scared of the dark. You love your taggie and your ukulele, 'sing'. You love 'poggie' and 'pasta' and would eat both at every meal if you could. You love water; the pool, bath and shower; head under, face wet, eyes open.

You are a mummy's boy.

You are my boy.

I love you, Beau. Happy Birthday.
