Peter's 3rd Birthday Party (December 17, 2011)

On December 15, 2011, my oldest baby boy turned three. I am astounded at how quickly the time went. Didn't I just get out of the hospital?? I think it's time to reminisce, please allow me this moment...

Oh! And now here we are...three years later. Peter, I am so proud to be your mama. Every day you put more words together to form thoughts that amaze, humble, and entertain me. Constantly. Just yesterday we had this conversation:
Peter: Mom, can we watch Bob and Larry?
Me: No, not until David's nap this afternoon.
Peter: (looking intently at David) You're looking pretty tired, buddy...

And just this morning you reminded me of how many verses you have memorized. 

Galatians 5:22-23a
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control."

Acts 16:31
"Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved."

Hebrews 4:16
"Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence."

Hebrews 12:2
"Jesus...sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

You love to sing, have recently discovered how much fun Veggie Tales, Winnie the Pooh,and Bob the Builder are to watch, love to spend time with your Daddy (as I type, you, Daddy and Lucy are out tromping around in the woods), love to help unload the dishwasher and put things away, play with your trains, construction set, puzzles, trucks, cars, airplanes, "inspection report" and crayons/markers/pencils/pens. 

You are a precious, sweet little boy...and for now, you are mine. I love you so, so much!!!
