Today my little man turns 4. He is so excited that his birthday is finally here. I tried to get a day pass so Lucy and I could go home for Nathan's birthday, but alas, no such luck.
Nathan is so many things. He is a tornado, curious, destructive, crazy, tough, wild, messy, spontaneous, silly, "Monkish", intelligent, snugly, loving, thoughtful, good boy! When he gets a treat, he asks for one for "his girls" (meaning his sisters, Rachel, Grandma and me). He calls Esther "his baby", and he means it. His smile will melt your heart, and his hugs will completely liquefy you.
He is obsessed with all things "boy" - cars, trucks, planes, trains, mud, balls, etc. His favorite movie has switched from Cars and Up (both he still loves), to Pete's Dragon - because he is now loves lighthouses.
He loves to watch Umizoomi when he gets to, and can't resist sweets - especially chocolate. That boy will do anything for chocolate, and will sneak into it anytime he can, regardless the consequence.
A game he loves to play is "Squeeze the Air out of Me" - you got it...we hug each other so hard, we try to squeeze the air out of one another.
He started Preschool in January, and is so excited to go every day. He says his favorite part is his friends. He also became a Sunbeam this year, and transitioned well from Nursery. He gave his first talk in Primary (our children's church group) last month, and did great.
He brings such horror, chaos, frustration, joy, love and happiness into our lives, and we are so grateful to have him in our family.
We love you Nathan, Nate-the-Great, Natey, boy-boy! Happy 4th Birthday!
