Dear Owen...September 7, 2014

Dear Owen,

Where do we begin to tell you how so very proud of you we are? You light up our life! From the moment you were born, you have been our pride and joy. It has been so fun to watch you grow, learn and change over these last six years. You are an amazing little boy- so caring and loving, so compassionate and kind.

You have accomplished so much- especially over the last few months. You graduated from safety town and completed your last year of preschool. We knew you were ready for kindergarten- and here you are- learning to add and subtract, working on your sight words, mastering your letters and numbers. We love working with you at home on your flashcards and seeing the excitement when we read a book and you being able to pick words out that you know. Soon you will be reading- which opens up a whole new world of excitement and imagination.

You are the sweetest, funniest little thing as well. You get your humor from daddy, that’s for sure! Everyone wants to be around you- you’re so fun! But as fun as you are, you can be so serious as well. You love to make sure everyone is included, especially your sister. You’re such a great big brother to her, and a great little brother as well.

It’s been really fun watching you thrive at sports. You had an amazing baseball season and have just started playing football and soccer. We are so thrilled with excitement (as evidenced on our videos) watching your two touchdown runs so far this season in the first two games and cannot wait to watch your first soccer game this Saturday as well. Quinlin scored 4 goals in your absence while you were playing football and I have a feeling, you probably will match that, if not score more this weekend!!!

Thank you for being who you are. We love you so soooooo much and cannot wait to see what the future holds for you.

 

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
