Kade, today you are 2 1/2 years old. You are one of Gods most amazing creations! I cannot get enough of you. I miss you when we are not together. And while you can test my patience at times, there is not a second that goes by that I do not thank God for allowing me to be your mom!
You say some of the funniest things these days! You always want to know where everyone went:
"Where Daddy went?"
"Where Trav went?"
"Where Papa went?"
You are definitely a "mans" child! You love nothing more than to be outside working on something with your Daddy, Uncle Trav, Trent, Papa, Pa Pa, Zack! You could almost live outside. I think I could count on one hand the amount of times you have asked to go inside (and I would probably have a few fingers left over)! You have a John Deere tractor with a trailer that you will ride throughout our yard. When the battery dies, you get off and push the tractor to the garage and then proceed to take the screws out of the hood so you can charge the battery. I'm pretty sure 2 1/2 year olds are not supposed to be this smart. You are amazing.
You love to play with other kids. I think it is amazing that you get to grow up so closely to your older cousin Trent (now if we could just keep him from teaching you bad things it will be even better). But you also love babies. Anytime we see a baby you want to see them and talk to them and touch them. You also call every baby we see (even in books and magazines) "baby Colton." Its very cute so we don't always correct you.
You are so bright and do not miss a thing that goes on around you. The other night when I got home from work you and your daddy were playing with trucks in the living room floor. I knelt down and told you to give me a kiss! You responded with "Go play on facebook, mommy!" It was the funniest darn thing.
You can count to 10 and sing most of the ABCs...when you want to! You love to sing. You're two favorite songs are probably "Happy Birthday...to Abby" (even when its not Abby's birthday you still say her name) and "Old McDonald had it at a farm." I love to hear you sing!
Ra Ra...can't forget about your love for Ra Ra! Aside from all the men in your life, Ra Ra has pretty much hung the moon! I think you may believe that she walks on water. When we leave the drive way you point to her house and say "Ra Ra's house that way, my go to Ra Ra's house," even though we are headed to town. You go to her house 2-3 mornings a week when your dad and I have to go to work early. You rarely cry when we leave you with her or Uncle Trav.
Some of you most favorite things right now are: backhoes, mac n' cheese, dirt, Abby, bulldozers, chicken, singing, big trucks, reading books, sucker balls (ring pops), heehaws (horses), riding your John Deere tractor, helping Daddy work on things, shooting the deer huntins (deer) with your shoot gun, melmo juices, brushing your teeth, fruit snacks, baseball games, Pluto, strawberries, peeing outside, and track hoes!
Somewhere deep inside all this "boy stuff" I know that you are also a Mommies Boy! And I couldn't be more blessed and proud for you to call me Mommy! You are definitely my sunshine and you put a smile on my face from the moment you wake up each day until I lay your head down on your bed at night. There are nights that your dad and I lay in bed and laugh at the silly things you have done during the day. Or while we are driving down the road we sometimes laugh so hard at the silly things you say! You are definitely one of a kind and Mommy loves you so very much!
I love you to the moon and back,
MOMMY
