A Letter to Our Son

Even though you're standing in front of me crying because I won't let you have the phone, I love you.

Our lives changed forever on July 24,2012. You came into this world at 8:10 AM by a c-section. Daddy and I were nervous about the c-section but we knew we had to get you into this world somehow. When you came into this world, I had know idea you were as big as you were. 9 lbs 14 oz and 22 in long! You pooped and peed before they could weigh you so I think you probably were about 10 lbs even :) Every one thought I was carrying twins, but you are your dads child so you were gonna be big. When we first saw you, we were amazed. We couldn't believe that we made you. You were made of only our DNA. Daddy's nose mommy's lips. You were perfect. 

Watching you grow has been amazing. From your first smile to crawling at 6 months to walking to talking! It's hard to believe you're a year and a half old. Having you as a toddler is so much fun. Every stage brings something new and it's what keeps us going. You love football just as much as your daddy. Every time you see the North Texas eagle, you say football regardless if it has a football on it or not. You learned how to say North Texas at the Bowl Game for daddy's team. You amaze me how much you pick up so fast. Hopefully you can pick up potty training when we start next week. :) 

Kendrix DeWayne, daddy and I hope you grow up big and strong and learn to love God as much as we do. We love watching you pray. Amazing to think you learned that so quickly by watching daddy and I pray. You are the light of our lives and you completely saved us. You are such a strong willed little boy and I hope that carries on as you grow. You're independent at times but you love your cuddles too. That's mommas favorite thing :) Thank you for being the best little boy we could ever ask for. Thank you for bringing so much joy to ours and other peoples lives. It's hard not to smile when we are with you. Daddy and I hope we can continue to be the best parents we can be for you. Words can't even begin to express our love and care for you. Our families love you too. Gammaw, Granny, PaPa, Poppy, every one loves you. Even the dog :) Always keep that dimple smile on your face and never stop being you. 

WE LOVE YOU & don't you ever forget that.

Love,

~Daddy & Mommy.
