Dear Marcus,
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and all I can think about is how much of an honor to be your mom! I told your dad the other day that if God had let me pick my own child, I could never come up with you. And that's a good thing! I could never have come up with the perfect blend of sweetness, humor, activity, playfulness, and feistiness. You have all of those qualities. You love a good joke and you love to smile.
My favorite thing you do is how you say "Dada" anytime I ask you to say "Mama". You totally get that you are giving me a hard time and that look you give me just melts my heart (although my Mother's Day gift from you needs to be actually saying Mama other than when you're upset!!). I love that you have a great sense of humor.
You are a big guy and are extremely athletic. We were just saying last night how skilled you are at shooting baskets. And you love Ball-ball (baseball). You will hit a ball off the tee and play catch as long as we will keep going. The only thing you are not good at is gymnastics. The other day we were laughing so hard because Jordan was jumping and doing somersaults and you just rolled. You are very proud of how well you can roll!!
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of big brother you are going to be. I pray that you are sweet and protective and kind with whoever else God has for our family.
I love you!
Mom
