Colton,
I am soooo proud of you!!! You have grown up so much over the past few months and have become such a big boy. You started taking speech with Ms. Angie in November and you love it. You love playing with her every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon at the University of Alabama. Since you started speech, you are now talking all the time! We still can’t understand a lot that you say but I do understand one word, Ma, which brightens my day every morning. The other day, when I picked you up from school, you saw me and you said “Hi Ma”. It was the highlight of my day!! Your new favorite things the past few months are playing with play dough, airplanes (you love Fly), and Toy Story 3. You still love Buzz and Woody and you love to pretend to be Buzz and fly around the room. You even got a Buzz bath towel for Christmas that you can now wear that makes you look like Buzz even more. You have also become such a great helper over the past month as well. Your teacher even said that you helped her clean up your classroom the other day when no one else would help. You’re great about helping mommy and daddy clean up around the house as well. Thank you! You have also become such a loving little boy. You love to snuggle with mommy at night and with daddy in the morning. You love to hold my hand and sit in my lap to watch cartoons. I know these times will fade away when you get older, so I cherish them every single day. Colton, you are a special gift from God and we are so proud of you. Your Daddy and I love you so much and we are so thankful that you are a part of our family. Always know that we will always be here for you and that no matter what we love you so much! Hugs & Kisses.
Love,Mommy
