Happy 5th Birthday, Ollie Bear!

Dear Ollie Bear,

Wow, you are five years old!!! Such a big boy now! And such a sweet, loving and caring big boy you are…

I want to remember how darling you are at 5 years old, so here’s a little about you. ♥

The number one thing you love is family. You idolize your big sister Sophie… and you are so caring and protective of your baby sister Sasha. You play with both of them so well, and you love when family comes to visit. You are so sweet and affectionate, and you are also empathetic and very caring toward others. Your teachers tell us that you are the first one to the aid of a crying classmate, and you are always offering to share with your friends. It’s no wonder Sasha cries when she doesn’t get what she wants, as you most always hand her the toy you are playing with if she wants it. ♥

You are very popular at your new school (just like you were at your old school). All the kids are happy to see you when you walk in the classroom, and all the girls want to “marry” you. It’s so sweet! Must be those big brown eyes of yours. ♥ You have the cutest laugh, and you laugh all day. You are truly a happy little boy. And you are a brave boy! You never cry when you have to go the doctor, or even when you get shots. And you take your medicine like a little man. Your sisters could learn so much from you! And though you are big boy brave, you still are afraid of the dark… so your big sis sleeps in your room with you every night. Sometimes we hear you two giggling well after your bedtime, but we are so happy that you have each other. ♥

You love trains, trucks, Star Wars, the “Old Platypus”, and all the Super Heroes. You love your Batman jammies- cape and all, and you wear it every time your preschool has pajama day. You love your new cowboy boots, your cool sunglasses, your spiderman snow boots (which you wear with shorts on sunny days), and you would wear your little red sweatshirt every day if you could.

Not only are you a big boy, but you are a very smart boy… you love to learn. You are the best at puzzles, and your teachers tell us that you are the only one that can put together every puzzle in your classroom. You are tidy too- both at school and at home (just like your Daddy). And yes, you are still a Daddy’s boy… and you love it when everyone tells you that you look just like him.♥

So Happy Birthday sweet Ollie! We love you so much! We are so proud of you as we watch you blossom before our eyes… May you always stay as loving and sweet as you are today… We know you will. ♥

All my love,
Mommy xoxo
