shine on shane

Me: Shane, so you turned 4 today! Tell me something that describes who you are.
Shane: Uhm… I’m master of strong! And I’m master of socks sometimes too.

Me: What’s your favorite sports?
Shane: Baseball, but I love all sports.

Me: Who’s your favorite sports team?
Shane: Yankees!

Me: Your favorite color?
Shane: Green.

Me: Favorite food?
Shane: Pasta.

Me: Are you still going to marry me when you grow up?
Shane: Yes.

I love love love LOVE this boy. He couldn’t be any more perfect in my eyes. He’s funny, charismatic, gentle yet super active.

He loves:
to sing and dance, loves his family, loves dogs, loves icing on cupcakes, loves hugs and kisses, loves to call me over for hugs 10 x or more before bed times, loves to grunt, loves to kick, loves to draw on walls, desk, and any other surfaces, loves swords, loves to play in water, loves bubble bath, loves Barbie listerine, loves the taste of minty floss, loves to roll, jump and run down hills with open arms.

Here’s my prayer for you my son…

Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:16

Happy birthday, Shane!

    Happy birthday Shane!! Our boys are the same age! (except mine was born in Jan)… and it’s funny his fav color is green too and he said he wants to marry me when he grows up too hahaha …. ok so it isn’t just my boy who says that 🙂 I love that verse. Somewhat encapsulates almost everything we want our boys to grow up to be and know.
