To the sweetest caboose,
Grayson, you are an ABSOLUTE joy! Having you here and part
of our family for Christmas this year brings an extra element of delight and
joy to our family! You make us all laugh, your smile is contagious, and your
pleasant demeanor is a gift to us all! =) I seriously cannot fathom what life
was like before you arrived…you were always planned and prayed for and we count
it a privilege to have you for our son-to be entrusted with the task of raising
you to be a God fearing man one day! Grayson, we couldn’t ask for more (well
maybe for you to sleep all night again =) ) but truly you are the best baby in
the world. We just got back from Disney World where we stretched you all day
every day with no naps and feedings in public restrooms and you handled it all
like a champ. You never made a peep and smiled all day long! You are seriously
THE MOST content baby I’ve ever met. We can take you anywhere and you just
smile at everyone! What fun you are to have along with us! You just roll with
the flow and adapt to whatever you need to!
Thank you for making our laps just a smidge cozier but our hearts even
fuller. You are so precious to us! We adore you, treasure you, and thank God
for you! We pray God grants us wisdom each day to love you well, point you to
Christ, and model His ultimate grace and mercy for you each day. We know we
will fail you, but your Savior never will. What a gift this Christmas season to
remember HOPE came as a baby! We love you sweet Grayson!
Love, Mommy & Daddy
