to be honest, i'm a little weepy just looking at that picture and thinking about oliver right now. on top of the fact that i'm sad about him growing up, i have mom guilt because he has such a bad birth date. his birthday hits us by surprise every year... one week after christmas. it's just not good timing. next year i promise it will be big. i promise, ollie.
i love him so much. i love it when he wakes up in the middle of the night and wants to lay with me... even if he demands arm tickles. i love how he talks and how he runs and how he eats. i love how he wants to be with his sisters and how he is trying to be soft with sawyer. i love how he sneaks candy whenever he can but always confesses. i love how he needs four hugs every time i drop him off at the childcare at the ymca. i love that he sings along with yo gabba gabba and wicked. i love how he closes his eyes and folds his arms during prayers.
i love you, ollie... my buddy.

happy birthday ov-iver......
we miss you guys....
i miss/love how he would give me big hugs and then just lay his head on my shoulder for-ev-er.
out of fear/love/exhaustion...
i don't bother with the details of why...just that he did.
Can I tell you how much I love that you have a boy named Oliver? Such a sweet name, for such a sweet boy. :)
P.S. 'Oliver' has been on my baby names list for about six years. :)
3 year-olds are the best. Seriously one of my favorite ages to have around the house! Happy birthday Oliver!
