Today is my older son’s 3rd birthday.  I can’t believe he’s 3 already.  He’s turning into such a handsome young boy with such a great personality. He’s very inquisitive, talkative and full of imagination.  I’m amazed at how he thinks things through and the questions he comes up with.  His favorite song is “Hot Pants” by the B-52s.  Seems funny but there is a reasonable explanation there.  As we’re in the midst of potty training he has had the occasional accident and one day came home in a pair of pink pants as those were the only spare ones available at day care.  Well he loves music and loves to dance so when he came home that day in those pink pants and said he wanted to dance, well one song came to mind.  Just this morning, for example, he was watching the movie “Cars” (his favorite) and actually decided he’d rather have music on instead so he could dance.  So on came “Hot Pants” and he jumped around the room, giddy with excitement.

So as I watch him grow, I can only hope that I’m raising a good person, one who enjoys life, treats others well, is inquisitive, kind and smart.  He’s on that path already and I truly enjoy being blessed enough to witness his development.  Happy Birthday my sweet boy!
