November 4, 2007--the moment I fell in love!
November 4, 2008--we made it through our first year!
Two years ago you came into our lives and I never knew how incredible life with you would be! You are the sweetest, kindest, sweetest mannered, intelligent, funny and loving little boy anyone could ever ask for.
You amaze me every day and I can't believe all the things you are doing now! You have an amazingly large vocabulary! You can count to 13 consistently, you know all of your letters (we're still working at recognizing them, but you are rock solid on the letter O). You are doing such a great job with potty training too. You are so sweet and use please, thank you, I'm sorry and many other kind phrases without being prompted. You know your colors, the words to so many songs and you have remembered so many books.
You are constantly engaging in the world around and are inquisitive and want to know how everything works. You love to play with trucks and tractors, basketballs, all art supplies, and you are wonderful at playing by yourself and I love watching you use your imagination. I love when you call me mom sometimes. I love listening to you talk whether it's to me, Daddy, your friends or your toys.
I love snuggling with you in the morning and reading to you at nap and bedtime (and all those other times during the day). I love it when you use your very loud voice, it makes me laugh. It also makes me laugh when you use your very deep voice as well as your whisper voice. I love hearing you laugh, it's infectious! You are ticklish beyond belief, but love to be tickled!
You are kind to all of your friends and are a very good sharer. You are an endless supply of hugs and kisses. You are so helpful around the house and love to cook (mixey, mixey as you call it). You are able to dress yourself and are very proficient with zippers on your coat, pants, pajamas, etc.
My life is infinitely better because you are a a part of it. I am so proud and honored to be your mommy. I love you more than you'll ever know and I would do anything to see you smile. You are amazing and I look forward to watching you grow up my sweet little boy!
Love always,
Mommy

Max - Happy Birthday! I can't even imagine what Jared will be like when he grows up to be a big boy like you! :)
an unrelated question - how do you get your blog's center column to be semi-transparent, so the background shows through?
I think I set the center to white--I'll look into to see if it's something different.
