57: Happy Birthday, Dear Jackson






















































Happy Birthday, Jackson Blake Freeman! Sweet boy, I am so thankful for you. Waking up every day and getting to be your mommy makes my heart happy. Your wonder, curiosity, and amazement in ordinary things is simply contagious. Your innocent and carefree spirit is something that I hope you always keep in your heart. I am so proud of you, too. You have transitioned into being a big brother better than I ever imagined. Thank you for loving your little sister, in only the way that you could. It brings me pure joy to watch the two of you together. I love that you love your Thomas trains so much, and that you think Lightning McQueen is so awesome. I love that you want to watch The Cat in the Hat as soon as you wake up...you love that predictability, just like your mommy and daddy! I think it is so cute how you always have little trinkets in your hands to sleep with...it is never the same thing...a train, a book, a car...you never know. I love going to Target and getting an Icee with you and strolling around and looking at toys together. I love watching you play with your little friends. You really are my sunshine. Watching you grow up every day really is a gift straight from our Heavenly Father. Jackson, thank you for 3 years of smiles, and 3 years of pure joy. Just like the life verse daddy and I picked out for you says....every good and perfect gift really is from above. I love you, buddy! Happy Birthday!
