Happy Birthday Ethan!





It was four years ago today that you were born and I wonder where the time has gone. From the moment we saw that priceless cowlick on your forehead, we knew you were a special little man.

You have such a fun personality. I can learn so much from you each day as you JUMP into life with a smile. Everything is fun. Everything is animated. Everything is given 110% with you! You are such a smart little boy and love learning. I've never experienced a child who is really and truly sponge like. Everything around you is a learning experience in the making and the questions you come up with often leave your Dad and I stumped! What are we going to do when you get older?!?

One of your greatest gifts is the way you interact with people of all ages. From visiting Marge next door to playing with Emma in school, you love people and are always looking for ways to make them happy. I don't think you can understand why someone isn't happy!

Always a morning person, you hop out of bed at the first hint of morning - sometimes before 5:30 even - and sing your little happy song, "It's morning time! It's morning time! It's morning time!" Thank goodness your Dad is more of a morning person. The two of you often spend time hanging out in the morning before anyone else it awake.

For months now, you have been anticipating your birthday. For some reason, you've decided that your name will change when you turn four. I guess E, EJB, Z, X-Man, Ethan, Ethan Jax, aren't enough for you! I can't wait to call you Guido because it makes me smile to even say it! You've told us that we can't use that name until you're four so today is the day!

I love you little man! I hope this next year has as many adventures as you can handle. Thank you for being my buddy and making me see the world in such a new and fun light each day.
