Today you are turning three.
Three is such a big number.
You are such a big boy.
Three makes sense for the way you are. Three doesn't make sense for the way I am.
You are bright-eyed and eager. You are involved, engaged and participating. You are simultaneously an independent force and a dependent mass.
You run.
You jump.
You climb.
You dream.
You talk. And talk. And talk.
You are sweet and silly. You are a magnet for hugs. You are a giggle machine.
You are an entertainer. A watcher. A thinker. An artist.
Just watching you makes my heart tighten.
You are ready for three.
I am not. I can't hold you back. I wouldn't hold you back because three is big for you. Three is big for me too. Three is the end of an era.
Three ends baby.
Forever.
Goodbye sweet baby.
Hello big boy...
Happy Birthday Rhett.
I love you!

You made me get all teary.
HH, you need to take those words, add photos (or your famous "drawerings") and make big man Rhett his own personalized book! Awesome picture of the birthday boy reclining in his spiffy duds.
That picture is GQ's next cover. Too cute! Happy Birthday, Rhett!!!
Happy birthday, little man.
I remember the age of three. It's the first time I can remember actually telling someone how old I was, and in my memory, I am so proud . . .
Happy Birthday Rhett!
That last picture is classic 3 year old!

Happy birthday little man. Soon you'll be picking out mommy's nursing home.

That's such a sweet little poem you wrote about your baby. Makes me teary-eyed. My guy just turned 8.
Awww...He is so cute! They get big too fast though!!
It's hard to let go of baby, isn't it?! That's probably why my "baby" slept with his pacie til (shhh don't tell anyone) FOUR. I was in total denial.
