My sweet Luke is 3 years old and I am sure I will say this every year but it has gone by so fast! Luke has grown up to be this cute little boy and I cherish every day with him. His cute smile, blonde hair and blue eyes melt my heart every single day. I am so lucky and blessed to be his Mommy! He had a train birthday party, so we went downtown and snapped a few pictures a few weeks before for his invitation. I got him and Brooke train shirts to wear to his party, so he got to wear his for the pictures today! He and I had a fun time together and of course made me laugh!

My Sweet Luke Luke,
You mean so much to me and brighten each and every day for me. Your smile, laugh, your blonde hair and blue eyes and your little voice just put a smile on my face all the time. You are such a funny little guy and have us laughing with you all the time. You steal Mommy’s heart for sure but you also steal Daddy’s and Brooke’s as well. You look up to Brooke so much and want to do exactly what she is doing. You do not see yourself any smaller or unable to do what she does. You have such a determined personality and I love that about you! You love to talk and we understand most of what you are saying and if we don’t you use gestures which are actually quite good, but that only happens on occasion because you are a big time talker! You love animals and love to pet and play with our cat and dogs as much as you can! Your heart is so caring and lovable and I am so thankful and blessed that you are my son!
