Xander turns 3 today!
I can’t believe that he’s been with us for 3 years already. And yet at the same time it seems like he’s always been here. I’m constantly amazed at the things he does and understands. I can’t imagine what our lives would be like with out him in it. He’s such a source of joy and love, it’s just amazing. It doesn’t matter how bad a day I’ve had, when I come home the fact that he’s so happy to see me makes everything better. Don’t get me wrong. I’m always glad to see Kate too, but she is an adult and so has an adult way of dealing with the world. She’ll finish what she’s doing, or look up from it and say “Hi” and go back to it or something. Xander gives full out joy. He usually stops whatever he’s doing and rushes up to me yelling, “Daddy! You’re home!” It’s just hard to beat that.
