3 Months Old

My Little Boy,

Three Months have flown by now and I am enjoying you more than ever. You bring so many smiles and laughter to our house. I often can't wait for you to wake up so I can play with you. A few weeks ago you learned how to grab things and now you put everything in your mouth. You get drool over EVERYTHING and my shirts are always wet. But I love that it opens up a world of showing you things and playing with you. You have also learned how to laugh (but not consistently) and I consider it my whole purpose in life now to find out how to make you laugh more. Another of my favorite things to do with you and talk to you and hear you mimic my sounds. You are getting so good at it! Sometimes I talk to you in a growl and you copy me. It is the cutest thing ever.

You probably don't know or understand how much I pray for you every day. The month that we found out we were pregnant for you I prayed non-stop. I prayed over and over that God would give me a baby. I prayed more than I had ever done before and that is saying a lot! God didn't have to, but he answered my prayers and entrusted you to us. When I was pregnant I prayed that God would keep you safe and that your heart would keep beating. Now, I pray with you every night before you go to bed. I pray for your future ... That you would grow wise and healthy. I pray that you always get caught if you are doing something wrong and I pray that God would hold onto you tightly and not let go of your heart. I also pray for your future wife and that you would make a good husband for her. I can't control you, your future or your safety, but I will always pray for you whether you know it or not. You are my son, a gift from God and I love you,

Your Mommy
