Dear Marcus,
In my last post, I talked about how you were walking. Now you are running! You love to go fast. You love to be chased and to chase others. You are so cute and such a little wild man. :) You are in the age where I feel like I need to put a helmet on you all day. :) You are such a mess. I have found you standing (and sometimes falling off of) some very tall things...tables, chairs, etc. And it seems like every time I pick you up from child-care at church or the gym, someone says "Well, Marcus had a little fall." My response is always the same..."Well, he seems fine." Silly kid!
You are still very sweet, but have started to get an attitude. Or maybe I should call it, "an opinion"! You know what you want and you have learned to assert yourself. You are to the stage where you won't willingly give up a toy. And you fight and push Jordan away if you have to. He still wins most of the battles, but you are much more assertive! And you are much more likely to scream at one of us if we don't meet your expectations.
We went to "Touch-a-Truck" a few weeks ago and it was so fun to see you turn into a little boy. It's like a light switched and you are not a baby anymore. You loved seeing the airplanes flying at Ozzie's and you were so excited to get to climb on trucks. You make the best "proud of myself" face and we saw it all morning.
You are such a blessing to our family. I cannot imagine what our lives would be like without you. Certainly duller and much less sweet. There would be fewer snuggles and fewer smiles. You are happy and silly and perfect for us! I love you!!
Love,
Mom
