How did this happen?  My sweet baby boy is 5 years old already.  I love every second of every minute of every day that I get to spend with him.  He is bright, witty, and so athletic.  He is a "pleaser." He will do anything to make me happy - like put his dishes in the dishwasher, or use nice hands with his little brother, or make his bed.  I am proud that i'm raising a boy who will become a man that does these things on his own.  I am most proud when he does kind things for others.  He holds doors open for people and insists that they let him.  He uses nice manners without being prompted (most of the time).  And he really finds joy in giving to others.  He is an amazing child! I'm so sad to see my "baby" become a memory, but so overjoyed to see the boy that he is becoming.
