Dear Bently,

We recently celebrated your THIRD fourth of July! Can you believe it! I can't! Every year with you the holidays get more and more fun! As you get older and start to understand you are more fun to watch! You loved the parade! And you didn't get hit in the head with anything this year! ;) It hurt my mommy heart a little bit to watch you struggle for those few pieces of candy. You were so proud of yourself when you managed to grab a piece from those big kids! And I couldn't help but be proud too! :) You were so excited for every piece of candy! And you have enjoyed eating them too! ;) After the parade ended we had a hard time convincing you to not run out into the road! Regular traffic is zooming by and you're standing on the curb waving your hands yelling "candy! Candy!" Too cute and funny! ;)

I think you had a fun 4th! We went to the little fair they have in the park where we got a frog! We let you hold it in the little ziplock bag and I give that frog kudos for surviving your shaking and poking! Then it was off to your Aunt Shawna's for dinner and their kiddy pool! You loved it!

I was nervous for the firework but you loved them! Every time there was a pause you would say "more again!" you just couldn't get enough! I think you get that from me!! :)

I sure do love you son! I love spending holidays with you and watching you have fun! :) It's a good day if you're happy!!

Love,
Mom
