Dear Aiden,

You are three years old today and your mama just can't believe how much of a little man you've become. I can still remember the first time I heard you cry and saw your sweet face. You were just as beautiful then as you are now. You and your sisters are my light in this world...you bless me with your presence and I praise God for you today just as I did the day you were born three years ago. Thank you, Lord, for my sweet boy!

My favorite thing to do right now is listen to your prayers each night. You have the sweetest little voice, so sincere...that is unless you're preoccupied with watching The Wiggles or Dora or Rudolph or Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas, and then you make it a quick prayer, which is also really cute! I also love to watch you with your baby sisters. You call them "your baby girls," just like your daddy does, and they love you equally as much. I am so overwhelmed with joy when I see the three of you playing together. When I asked God to bless my children, never could I have guessed that I'd be this lucky. You three are my angels.

You know, you always ask me that best questions. "How does it work?" "Where are we going today?" "Why does it do that?" I just love to hear them and I pray that you will always be full of questions. I knew you would be inquisitive, even as a baby, because your eyes were always full of wonder. One of your first words was "Wow!" and I still love to hear you say that now when you discover something new. You are just an amazing child! This year you showed me that you truly have no fear when you got up in front of an audience for the first time and sang with me, Tashy and Papaw. I was so proud that I could barely sing! I can't wait to see you grow in your music and discover where that gift from God will take you. You also conquerred potty training this year and have proven to me and your daddy that you are a big boy! I am so glad that we don't have to deal in diapers anymore! One down, two to go!! Another funny thing you've started doing is calling me "Mandye" when you're really serious. I know you're not happy with me when you use my name instead of "Mama." My favorite ever was, "Do something, Mandye!" when your sister kept turning off the tv while you were watching one of your shows. I think you were a little frustrated with your Mama, but I just laughed because you were so cute! You definitely have a mind of your own, that's for sure.

Well son, your big birthday party is this weekend and you will be getting your big Jeep, just like your daddy's. I can't wait to see the look on your face when you see your Jeep and realize that you get to keep it all to yourself! It broke my heart when you were are Bryce's birthday party and wanted to take his Jeep home with you. Well, this one is yours, kiddo, and you can play with it all you want! I am so excited for you!

You know, it broke my heart a little today when I realized that you were officially not a baby anymore, but then you threw your arms around my legs and said, "Hold me, Mama!" and I remembered that you'd always be my baby. And I hope that you know that no matter how big you get, I will always be here to hold you. Never forget that.

I love you, my sweet boy...

Love,
Your Mama
