overdue

Jax man turned one on December 9th. I feel that as his auntie I owe him a birthday shout out to celebrate the one year.

dear jax man,
This is a story about how you're mom and dad think their sneaky vs. your aunt here that knows all : ) lemme explain.
I remember picking up on the pregnancy signs, for example you're mom was craving grease like crazy and I asked her and she sneakily lied until the night it was revealed that Kez would be a big sister. I knew it.
As you know they decided to keep your gender a secret-but oh boy did I know : ) Everyone made guesses and we all anxiously awaited the big day when it would all be revealed. Well December 9th came and I found myself having finals down at school-your once again not so sneaky mom started inquiring about my schedule for the day and I knew she was in labor. Long story short I busted your mom and grandma for trying to lie, arranged my schedule to get home ASAP. I don't even remember that last final I took in about 10 minutes or less and I hit the road. I made it to Payson when I got the phone call-"Jaxon Jacob is here, and can't wait to meet you". I knew it. I knew you were a boy, I knew you were going to be born that day, and I knew I was going to miss it.

It's been a fun year seeing how different you are from your sister and watching you terrorize and destroy everything in your sight(benefit of being your aunt I can just let you run and do your thing).Thanks for being a reminder of what matters in life and for cheering me up instantly with your laugh, refusing to show teeth 90% of the time smile, and new words yelling "HIAAAY" as you run to me when you see me. Thanks for always making my day jax man.





Happy (belated) Birthday buddy boy. I love you so much.
