Two!

Benjamin Mark Watson is officially two years old. We have been celebrating for over a month, so he now thinks everyday is party time. He wakes up in the morning asking for "More birthday, more birthday!"

We kicked off his second birthday last month with a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Watson (check out his choo-choo bank, complete with crossing sounds and lights) and Grandma Zipper (Ben's name for Leah's mom!) and have also had a visit to see Thomas the Tank, family day at Chuck E. Cheese and a small celebration at home with our North Carolina "family."

We are in the midst of a difficult time of pain and grief and are so thankful for the joy and laughter Ben brings us every day. He is growing into an incredible boy, full of excitement and cuddles, energy and charm, a love of reading, stickers, smoothies, dance parties, puppy dogs, sweeping, rain, jumping and baby sisters.

Beemer, Ben-Ben, Silly Ben, Big Brother, Benjamin Mark...Happy Birthday to our boy, our sunshine.
