3 months of life

Azariah is 3 months old today and I am told this is a milestone. Indeed my son has developed and changed greatly within 3 months. This blog post is written to my son describing his state of life.




Hi Buddy. I dont know when you'll read this or what you'll be doing, but you're 3 months old today. Congratulations! You might not think it's a big deal, but you are kind of a big deal to us. I am struck by what a sweet kid you are. You giggle and laugh and give us your big lower lip when you are sad. You like listening to me sing to you. This makes me feel special because I want you to like me and singing is very intimate so it makes me feel special to know that you like me even at 3 months old. Everyone is struck by what a big kid you are. I joke about how you don't have cheeks, but rather sacks that sit on the sides of your face. I think about your future and I am very gratified to think about the person you are becoming. You are a sweet, gentle, loving, intelligent child and I am grateful to be your father.
