Dear Roman

Dear Roman,

I have been meaning to write to you for a while. I think of things you do throughout the day and want to record them for us. You constantly amaze me little boy. Everyone said you were an "easy" baby but wait until you hit the toddler years because them it was going to get rough. Well, I am still waiting for the "rough" time to hit. You are so happy all the time. You love people and you never meet a stranger. I love that innocent trust I see in you. I wish I could always protect that for you. You love to play with your friends and have them chase you. For a two year old you don't even seem to mind too much if someone takes a toy from you and when we have friends over you always try and find a toy to give them. You arn't a big eater but you love sweets..and you associate stores with certain foods (ie: target-popcorn, Sams- pizza, Walmart- chicken). Your memory constantly amazes me.You love to play outside and anything that has to do with water. You love chuck e cheese but sometimes confuse him and call him "mac n cheese" which always makes me laugh.
You Love your daddy so much. Sometimes in the day you start saying "daddy soon" meaning daddy will be home soon even though it might be hours a way. You also know what daddy does at work because when he leaves in the morning you start saying "Bumperman" like he is a superhero leaving for the day.
You just love to play..even this morning when you woke up at 5 am throwing up you wanted to go and pick up your trains and play between vomiting sessions.You love Thomas, tractors, trucks, and books.
You love going to the gym with mommy and sometimes cry when we have to leave. I wish mommy shared your enthusiasm in that area...
You love your grandparents and ask for them constantly. When we get to the Long point exit going into Mount Pleasant you often will say "ba pa soon" or "church church"
I can tell you are going to be like your daddy and be a people person. You seem to love everyone and you are always concerned when someone is sad. You often say 'Okay momma?" if you think something is wrong.
You are going to be such a good big brother. At night when we pray you lift up my shirt and kiss my belly.
I thank God all the time for the joy you have brought to our lives. You are a precious little man, Roman James..I can't wait to watch you change the world as you grow into your God given role....
Love You,
Mommy
