To: John

Little buddy, Baby John,

What a joy you are. I am blown away that you are almost a year old and on the verge of walking! It literally seems like yesterday that you nearly fit in my hand.

Although you aren't even one yet, I am absolutely amazed by the little human you are becoming.

You are full of joy, peace, and happiness. You are content in nearly every situation and ready to have fun.

I am beyond grateful to call you my son and although I don’t ever want you to grow up, I can’t wait to keep watching you grow into the person God has created you to be.

You are a blessing that your mom and I do not deserve, but thank God that He chose us to raise you.

Until the day you can grasp my ever growing love for you, I pray that you feel my love in every hug, snuggle, and play time we have.

I love you, John.

-Daddy
