Happy Birthday, Rooke!

How did we go from this . . .

and this . . .

to this handsome big boy in just THREE years?!

Rooke is observant, intelligent, loves to read, doesn't like getting dirty, sleeps like a log (once he's asleep), remembers everything, talks like he's way older than 3, not great with change, loves food, responds well to encouraging words, is a great helper at home, likes playing with people far better than playing alone, is still trying to figure out how to interact with his sister, has a sensitive spirit, does great walking long-ish distances with Mom, can be a bit bossy, likes talking on the phone . . . and so much more.  We are daily blessed by our son and couldn't be more grateful for the three years we've known him. 

Happy Birthday, Rooke!
