Sweet Anderson,
You will have some big shoes to fill. And some amazing footprints to follow.
Your daddy and your brother love you so much already. I never doubted your daddy would love you so much and so well, but your brother has surprised me from the moment you tried to kick your way out on July 15, 2013. Never have I witnessed such a mature, whole-hearted love from a 3 year old. He was so ready to be a big brother and accepted you and your tears and your screaming in stride and loved you as soon as he met you. {"He's so coot and little!"} Immediately, he wants me to "fix you" as soon as you make a noise. He is in a hurry for you to reach milestones :: "Mommy, he said his first word!" is his response to your grunts and noises. While Alekzander is not so interested in holding you, or ever still enough, he LOVES to kiss you and hold your hand or tickle your feet. So far you tolerate it. One day, you will be his biggest fan ... even though you may fight the way brothers apparently do.
Please know you are loved immensely. I am so lucky to now have three amazing boys to love!
{haha love this 'out-take' ... You can pick your nose, you can pick your brother's nose,
but you can't pick your brother. God took care of that one
and picked a perfect one for both of you!}
