One year ago tomorrow you entered our lives, and you’ve been nothing but a bundle of joy ever since. Both of your grandmothers say you are the best baby they have ever seen. I guess that’s why this year has gone so quickly – you make our lives better and happier, and you’re just SO EASY. You are what my parenting books would call an “Angel Baby” – easy-going, happy, agreeable. I’ll be the first to admit you did not get that from me! You definitely have your daddy’s mild temperment, but you do look like me. (Abby is exactly the opposite – she looks like him but has my feisty personality).
You are walking and running all over the place. You love having your feet tickled. You love when your dad plays chasing games with you. And any time you hear music, you do a little dance where you bend your knees and do mini-squats. You smile every time someone makes eye contact with you, and you have beautiful blue eyes that the doctor says will stay that way.
Your sister adores you, and the only problem we have is that she sometimes loves on you too much. I often find her laying across you or sitting on top of you, pinning you to the ground like her own personal pillow. The funny thing is, you rarely complain. I guess you’re just used to it. Before you were born, I worried that Abby may be jealous of a new baby, but she truly loved you from the moment she met you. You just have that effect on people. We are so lucky that you are our baby. We love you, Emerson Lily!
