Oh Luke, you are such a crazy, fun, awesome kid. You're constantly running around the house saying all kinds of hilarious things. You love the tee-tee (TV) although we try to limit how much it gets watched, your milk cup, brushing your teeth and you even grab it during the day and pretend to squeeze toothpaste right onto your brush. You totally love bath time and you're extremely curious about the potty. You love to go on walks in the stroller and tell us, "I walk!". You are so extremely proud of yourself when you've accomplished something, as you should be. You get a giant smile on your face and yell, "I did it!"
You love to help. You get so excited to see what momma and daddy do and copy anything we're doing, and we love it! You helped carry bananas in from the car when we went grocery shopping and did SO good! You try to clean the counters and the table with whatever is in sight to wipe with- regardless of it's use, such as a placemat, a hand towel, pot holder, etc.
You're very excited about your little sister and are constantly running in her room saying, "Em-men!" (Evelyn). We ask you where momma's baby is and you pat her tummy. You're going to be such a sweet big brother. Watching you with other babies melts our heart. I love how you automatically give them hugs and kisses without us even telling you to. You have such a sweet, kind heart already, and we love your gentle spirit.
Daddy is your hero. You get so excited as soon as you hear the garage door open! He love him to swing you in his arms and would have him do it all day if he could. Daddy would, too, except you're such a big, strong boy and it makes him tired! Momma has taught you how to ride on his back and say "Giddy-up" and slap his back. It's the funniest thing. Daddy doesn't laugh as hard as I do. :)
Your smile is infectious. We love that sweet laugh of yours. When we tell you to say I love you, you do right on cue. You have so many more things you've grown and learned to do, that I can't begin to list it all. You are such a light in our lives and we couldn't be more thankful for such a sweet, awesome, amazing little boy. The Lord has been so good to us in giving you to us. We can't wait for the next years and to watch you grow in wisdom and stature. We pray for the Lord's direction in your life and that along with your goodness already, His perfect goodness would come about in your life and you would choose Him to follow. We prayerfully plead this for your life and cannot wait to see his plan unfold in your life.
We love you and are so proud of you! Happy Birthday!!!!
