Dear Etrain,
You're three and a half years old! I can't believe it. How did you grow up so fast? If I asked you, you'd say it's taking a long time to be four, but I wish we could slow this down. I look back on these old posts all the time, just enjoying seeing what you were like back then. But I sure do enjoy you now too. Sometimes I want you to grow up so we can do more things together, but then I remember how fast time seems to be going, and I wish I could freeze it so I can keep you just as you are. I bought this sign for your room where you can change what it says on it, and the first quote I put up said "Let me love you a little longer before you're not little anymore." It's a good reminder for me because one day you won't want me to help you put on shoes, or read you a book, or cuddle you, or kiss your boo boos. One day, you may not like me. You may go through the teenage phase of hating your parents. Oh man, I hope that doesn't happen. Ok, I'm taking a long tangent, but my point is, you're the coolest little kid, I love every bit of you, and I'm trying to soak it all up.
