JT

Poor JT's birthday was really overshadowed by a lot of stuff going on this November and December. He didn't ever even get his own blog post! Fortunately I haven't completely forgotten this and I am squeezing it in before the end of the year.

JT is absolutely enlightening. He brings a light to our home that cannot be duplicated. He has a smile that can brighten your day and make you forget how mad you are at him, and believe me he knows how to use that to his advantage!! He is a perfect little buddy and an amazing big brother. He can seriously hold his own in wrestling with his big brother, and is so soft and kind with his baby sister (most of the time...he isn't about to let her grow up as a wimpy little girl, after all!!)
He makes us all laugh even when we really don't want to, and is truly teaching me the meaning of patience. He wants to do almost everything by himself, he loves to help me cook and really can't understand why on earth he can't sit in the front seat of the car. He HATED the Snow White ride at Disney World, but loves all things boy (some of which seeminly would be much scarier) like Batman, Pirates, Superman, Ironman, Cars, and Buzz Lightyear.

We love our JT and all that he teaches us every day about being silly, laughing, trying reapeatedly to get something right, running and relaxing. Our family simply wouldn't be the same without him!
