You were a surprise from the moment I found out about you.....I wasn't ready, at least I didn't think I was. God had different plans and I'm SO GLAD He did.
For the last year you've been nothing but an absolute delight, my little Levi. I waited and waited for you and a week after you were suppose to be born you finally decided to grace us with your presence at a whopping 8lbs 9oz....you weren't messing around. And what I thought to be a big baby turned to be such a blessing...for you ate so well right from the start, slept well immediately and have been such an easy baby.
I love everything about you little man. Your little bald head that is now sprouting precious blond curls....Your sweet smile that appeared almost from the moment you came out....your laid back personality and "go with the flow" mentality....Your sweet little lips that call my name and so many other things already....The love you show me when you lay your head on my chest and snuggle....the gift of life you were given, for truly you are a gift to us.
So, you might have been a surprise to us sweet Levi, but you're one of the best surprises we've ever had and I'd do it all over again. My heart is so in love with you.
As you grow up to be an amazing man, may your heart seek the Lord passionately & fervently all the days of your life. May you have a boldness for Christ unlike any other and may He be all you hope and dream for. In a world that's full of so many supposed happy things, all that truly matters is Him. For as much as I love you and am so thankful for the gift of you....He loves you more, for you are His.
I love you my little love....Happy Birthday!
Your Mama
