So he's 2
Now that Jeremiah is 2 years old, I figured it'd be appropriate to submit an update.
-he can communicate really well. In fact, tonight when we were in the check out lane at wal-mart he said "I want chocolate. I want candy. I want chocolate."
-he LOVES to go shopping. Here's my best shot at listing the phrases he says the most:
-Shopping?
-I want play toys
-hold you mommy. hold you daddy.
-I want_______
-Look at this!!!
-If we deny his request of any sorts, he usually replies "but I want to!"
-Our house can go from tidy to scattered in less than a minute because of him
-He misses all of his MN family and regularly calls them on his Elmo phone
There are so many new and exciting things about raising this little man that I cannot fit them all into this post while keeping your attention. But I will reemphasize how much I love him, and love being a dad. So many times when I'm playing with him, and he's thinking about the tower we're building, or Thomas the train, or maybe that he's peeing his diaper from laughing so hard at the tickling, I'm only thinking about the indescribable amount of love I have for him, and how much I am enjoying that very moment with him. It's amazing that I have the capacity to love him as much as I do.
You're a great dad Jake. My mom told Tom that he was a great dad. Tom said, "I just play with him." What a statement. It means everything that you play with Jeremiah. I love watching you guys together.
Yep, you have the capacity to love Jeremiah like you do because you love like your Father . . . .
p.s. Did you really have to post THIS picture????? =) I thought I was hiding . . . .
