I have a crush on...

...this FOUR year-old.

I can't believe that our little moo turned four today. I'm constantly amazed by him, and falling more and more in love with him everyday. He makes me laugh all the time and constantly keeps me on the go and entertained, not to mention Ivy. We are so blessed to have him in our family; I can't imagine what life would be like without his sweet little spirit. I love you sweet boy!

Aside from how stinkin' adorable I think he is, here are four of the thousand and one things I love about Max:

1. He loves to laugh and have fun, it's so easy to get him to laugh or smile because he just is always a happy little guy. If something upsets him, it only takes him a minute to get himself back on track and in a happy mood. His happy heart is a joy to have at home

2. He has a great imagination and recently, it's been getting bigger and bigger. He plays make-believe with his toys, he loves pretending to be different things, most recently, it has been Davy Crockett, Miguel Montero (Dbacks Catcher) or a Doggy. He takes it so seriously, and is so funny to watch or listen to what he thinks those people do.

3. He loves to say "Mom, tell me about..." He's constantly yearning to learn more things about EVERYTHING. Sometimes I don't know anything about what he wants to know, but when I have some fun fact to tell him, he eats it up and never forgets it. So fun!

4. He loves to sing and dance. He loves to have dance parties in the living room to Lady Gaga, Hannah Montana and the Chipmunks songs. I always hear him singing in the car along with the CDs we play, and I can sometimes hear him singing primary songs when he's in his room playing. My very favorite thing is when I'm putting Ivy down for a nap, and Max doesn't have to go to sleep with her. He'll be playing in the other room, and when he hears me start to sing to her, he always runs in and sings I am a Child of God, or I love to See the Temple with me.

Happy Birthday to my favorite boy in the whole world!

You make me happy!
