Dear Max...

Our sweet, sensitive, loving, thoughtful, crazy, energetic, super smart, super fast FIVE year old! Oh how much we love you, more than words can even say. We love the way you laugh, we love the way you smile. We love the way you wrap your arms around our necks to hug and cuddle with us. We love that you wake up grumpy even if you are difficult sometimes. We love that you are always willing to help us with anything. You make the beds without being asked. You clean up your whole room, all your toys and the rest of the house just because you love us. You are the sweetest, kindest little boy we've every known and we are so proud to be your parents.

You love to color and do art. And you draw incredibly thoughtful and amazing pictures! You are super smart and can figure out all kinds of things without us having to help you. You can build anything and everything out of blocks or Legos or pillows or old boxes.

You love to do anything outside. You still love the beach and running and playing in the sand. You are always the happiest when we are there. You love the park. You are still incredibly fast. So fast that even people we don't know comment on how fast you are. You can run run run and never get tired of it. You really are like a little superhero.

You are the most loving big brother we've ever seen. You are always caring and helping Lia with everything and anything. You stand up for her on the playground when another kid is mean. You play with her and teach her as much as you can. You take your roll of big brother very seriously. You are so understanding when she bothers you and you are quick to come to her aid when she needs help.

You have a loving heart the size of a gigantic elephant! It's amazing it even fits inside that sweet little body of yours. While you can be shy sometimes, you listen when your mom or dad tell you to try to be more out going. You always try to do your best in every way. You strive to be a good boy and to choose the right all the time. Although you get into trouble sometimes, you rarely do it on purpose and are always trying to be the very best boy you can be.

We love you more than life itself our sweet sweet Maddox boy. We are so excited for you to start kindergarten. You will love it and will be so good at it. We are loving the person you are already becoming and can't wait for you to keep growing and learning and thriving. We feel so so blessed to be your mom and dad. How lucky are we that we get to be YOUR parents? Our sweet sweet boy. We love you!

Hugs and Kisses,
Mama and Daddy
