Dear Marcus,
The goal of these letters is that I write them every week, but for some reason, having two little boys has made that harder! Now that you are a little bigger, I'm starting to get the hang of this and will try to do it more often. It seems like you change every day! You are getting a little chunky and staying awake for longer periods of time. I am constantly amazed at how laid back you are! You will sit and look at a toy or the back of the couch for long stretches of time! Sometimes I feel guilty because I use that to my advantage and get things done instead of holding you. But don't worry, I sneak in plenty of snuggle times with you.
Your Grammy and Pappa are here, so it is fun to let them do things with you. They both enjoy feeding you bottles and talking to you. You try to talk back and just look at them for long periods of time. The thing we laugh about the most with you is your burps! It is so funny to hear such a loud and obnoxious belch come out of such a sweet, tiny boy. Jordan even answers the question "What does Marcus say?" with "Burp, burp".
Being flexible is nice because we can get out and enjoy activities as a family. The other evening we took Jordan to Mardel to buy him his first Bible. You just tagged along and didn't make a peep! It won't be long and we will be taking you to buy a Bible. I hope you understand what a blessing it is for us to have God's Word in our language. There are many around the world who do not or are not allowed to have a Bible.
Little man, you are such a blessing to our family. I could not love you more. I am so looking forward to watching you grow up, but at the same time I am trying to savor every day I have with you. You are precious!
I love you!
Mom
