Happy Birthday Big Boy

Dear Noah

It's 8pm and you are tucked up safe in bed (you sleep in the top bunk now) Your 3rd birthday is all over.  You, me and Daddy have had an amazing day.  We started slowly all in bed together opening presents.  This year Mummy and Daddy thought you were a big enough boy to have a camera of your own.  You were thrilled with it and I'm sure you will take lots of great photos on our big holiday to America.  You were just as thrilled with the $2 packet of dinosaur stickers - it's all about dinosaurs this year.

After much silly discussion over the last few days about what it would mean to turn 3 you were convinced this morning that your feet had gotten bigger but assured me your hands were still small.

Over the last few days Mummy has been very busy with all the preparation for your party.  You have been a great helper but you have also been very kind with words (and even a handmade card) of thanks and appreciation.  Today as Daddy swept the backyard you said 'Thank you for getting my party ready Daddy'.  That's the kind of boy you are kind and thoughtful.

Your party was a roaring success (no pun intended) and you were a gracious host.  You thanked everyone for coming and bid each group farewell with shouts of  'I Love You'

You are surrounded by wonderful family and friends and everyone adores you.  You are so generous with your hugs and kisses and always have a smile on your face.

Tonight after all the excitement of the party we have had some time to look through your presents and you and I had a lovely bath together - it really has been a fun and special day.

Happy Birthday my precious Noah-saurus, I love you.
