Dear Jordan,
Well, little man, you have accomplished a couple of things this week!
The first was your first haircut. You were really looking shaggy, but I was putting off taking you. First, I felt guilty because I didn't want to spend the money on something I should be able to do. And second, I knew how it would go. :) Well, we took you on Monday and it went about like I expected. You cried the whole time! But you did it! You got some bubbles and high fives after it was over and they did a great job. Turns out, I think we're going to have to pay because I will not be able to hold you down and cut your hair at the same time. I promised your dad that I wouldn't cry, but I did kind of tear up. You just look like such a big kid!
The second milestone is something I've been dreading. You figured out how to climb out of your bed. Yikes! You did it a few days ago when I put you in there because you were throwing a fit. I was nervous about you doing it in the middle of the night, but you haven't done it yet. I have been sleeping with the door open just in case! Today at nap time was the first time you did it to get out of sleeping. You didn't want to take a nap, even though you were exhausted. About ten seconds after I closed the door, you came walking out and closed it behind you like you owned the place! So, it took a few tries, but you are finally asleep and resting!
Last night and today we have been in an ice storm. We were without power for a few hours, but it's not bad. It's on now and we're hoping it stays that way. All of the trees in Norman are covered and many are broken. It's always very sad for us when the trees get broken because that is one of our favorite parts of this town! They are beautiful, but trouble when the ice comes!
It is hard for me to believe that you will be two in six weeks. Time is just flying by! I love who you are. You make us laugh all the time! You are sweet...you always blow kisses and say hi to strangers. You make people smile! I pray for you all of the time. I pray that God will capture your heart at a young age so that you can start spreading His love and truth early!
I love you, buddy.
