1 year, may you always be forever young sweet boy!

"Forever Young" -Bob Dillon

May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young.

May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young.

Andrew, mommy has always loved this song and since I've had you in my life it strikes me even more.  Drew, together, lets stay "Forever Young!"  I love you 1 year old!

And now on to what you are up to at 12 months!  You continue to talk, a lot.  You love playing chase with daddy and mommy.  You've got molars coming in by the minute and two colds to boot!  Your friends and family took good care of you in celebrating your first birthday, it looks like Toys R Us in the house, thank you so much everyone!  Wagon rides and drumming are two favorites of yours...and dads too.  To add insult to injury you not only continue to dislike diaper changes but now you've decided to start reaching down and grabbing the poop!  I sure hope you potty train like a champ, daddy and mommy need some sort of break.  Your curls are starting to take on a life of their own, in fact, a hair cut might be in order soon.  You are totally on whole milk now and down to just a bed time bottle.  Dr. Sorenson says we need to be done with bottle by 15 months, boy am I going to miss that snuggle time with you. You weight 20 lbs and your height is 29 inches! You love brushing your teeth, being outside, chasing Norman, beating Harper, smiling at anybody, playing with technology, banging on things (thanks daddy), having books read to you, playing with other little baby friends, having visitors, you throw balls and dad looks like a kid in a candy store dreaming of your future, fruit is always the favorite food and you continue to think about walking but are content to crawl!  This year has been the best year of our lives, there are no words to describe the joy you bring us daily.  We love you sweet boy...so so so much!
