Dear Bennett,

Today your big boy bed arrived! This was very sentimental for me because you are the last kid to have a crib in this house, so today we are officially done with our baby days! I am so excited that all of you are so healthy and growing so well, but I also feel a little sad that your little years are passing so quickly. I sure do love these days.

Love you,
Mama

Dear Bennett,

Today you are two and a half! You have become quite a talker with SO much personality. You have become very particular about your hair — it must be a mohawk created with a specific gel. After your nap you say, “My mohawk is broken. Can you fix it, Mom?” You are such a helpful sous chef, too! You are such a special part of our family!

Love you,
Mama
