two

jed is two today! i seriously don't know where the past two years have gone! while in the hospital a few short weeks ago having our second son.... i felt as though i was JUST there with that adorable boy with think dark hair that we named jedidiah charles! but today... is the day he turns two!jed... we can't imagine our lives without you in it. it is no lie that you stretch us more than we ever thought we could be stretched, but we trust that with the help (and lots of it) from the Lord you will grow into a man whose strong will will do great and mighty things one day! you are full of passion and won't back down easily. you are still adorable and melt your mamas heart with a look! you have been a joy these past two years and i look forward to the next year ahead with great anticipation. we pray for wisdom in training you up to be the man that God desires for you to be.

some things i want to remember about you at this age:

-you love to do anything your sister is doing. you play play dough, color, paint, or participate in whatever she wrangles you into doing. for the most part you play so well together!

-you call your new baby brother "baby maf (mav)"

-you LOVE your blankies and sock monkey, you can't go to sleep without them and you like to carry them around during the day also

-you will take your dad up on any opportunity to go with him. riding in the combine, tractor, truck or just a ride in the pickup are the highlights of your day

-you love to farm in the house too... a combine from dad for christmas was a favorite!

-you are an eater... pretty sure you will eat us out of house and home one of these days!

-you will bring us book after book to read

-you are a cuddler!

-when we are done praying you yell "AMEN!!"

love you to pieces jedders! happy 2nd birthday!
