You are the official "baby" of the family by 3 whole minutes. We chose your name, Nathaniel, because it means "gift from God." Daddy and I always wanted 3 children but only thought we would have two. When we found out we were having twins we were so excited because our wish came true so your name seemed perfect. Nathan, you are the typical youngest child. For the most part, you are just such a happy go lucky little guy. You love people and are very social yet you could lay on your tummy for hours and play with your choo-choos.
Nathan, you have the kind of personality Mommy wishes she had. You are such an outgoing little guy and get so excited at the smallest things. On the first day of preschool this year you walked right in, started playing and never looked back. I had to practically beg you for a hug and kiss. You love new adventures and meeting new friends. You love your preschool "classroom" (as you call it), your teachers and your friends. Your teachers have said that your are the most eager student in class. You always want to try everything first and you get so excited about everything they do. You never meet a stranger. You blow kisses and talk to all of the cashiers at the stores. You also seem to be a little bit of a ladies man already. You are such a little flirt.
It doesn't surprise Mommy that you have this personality. You were a people person from day one. You were my baby that wanted to be held and cuddled the most. You have always been mommy's little cuddle bug. Even in the womb, you were trying to snuggle with Noah. You were the most energetic in mommy's tummy and I think you were just trying to stay close to your brother. Nathan, you are a mommy's boy. You love your daddy and love to play with him and meet him at the door every day but when you are sad or sick you need your mommy and I love that.
Nathan, you have always been bigger than your brother by a few lbs and a few inches. You are just a solid, stocky little guy. It amazes me because you are such a rough and tough boy. Daddy and I always say that we can really see you playing football one day. (You have also developed a new habit of growling at everyone which is pretty funny.) As rough and tough as you are you have such a sensitive heart. When you and Noah or Abby get into a fight or argument we always ask you all to hug and say you're sorry. You always rush to say it first even if you are not at fault. Many times Noah and Abby have the disagreement but you apologize for them. We always laugh that you will tackle someone playing football one day and then run back to help them up and apologize. If you ever see mommy looking unhappy (or probably just tired ) you always ask, "What's matter Mommy?" or "You happy Mommy?". You are just such an affectionate, sweet boy.
However, as sweet and calm as you can be you also have quite the temper. You probably have the worst temper of the 3 of you. For months Noah and Abby would take toys from you and you would just cry. We actually encouraged you to fight back a little. It didn't take long for you to get tired of this. Let's just say that you don't let them take things from you anymore.
You are such a smart little guy. You can count ou loud to 14 and you can even count objects that high. You have an amazing ability to remember the words of songs. You love to sing and pick up the words quickly. You get this from Daddy. You love for Mommy to sit and read to you (especially Thomas books).
Your absolute favorite thing in the world right now is trains. You love to watch Thomas the Train. Your other favorite show is Roary the Racing car. Your favorite color (like Mommy's) is red. You are a pretty picky eater but love,love, love your bread!
Nathan, I love spending every day with you. You are just such a sweet, happy little boy. Mommy just can't get enough of that huge smile, those hugs and your "wuv yous."
Love,
Mommy
