Your lil Bro, Preston.

GA,
Your little bro, "Presto", has become such a great addition to our lives that I have to write about him a bit here, sweet peach.

He's 2.5 years old right now and likes to talk at a volume of 11+. He screams and/or grunts most things. However, the good thing is that he's doing it out of wanting to entertain us. He's a happy dude most days. And his wanting to entertain us comes directly from YOU. He watches you. He listens to you. He ADORES you. He wants to be just like you, Georgia.

And the most adorable thing is that you.like.him.too. You don't mind him around. You don't mind watching "his" shows or playing with his toys. You'll also share "your" toys most days. You LOVE teaching him and helping him. And you are Mommy's biggest helper.

We've been going to church the last few weeks and there is a playspace you guys enjoy going to afterwards. It's similar to a Chick-fil-A or McDonald's space with levels to climb before you get to the slide as a reward. At church, Preston isn't tall enough to reach each climb, but you so  patiently and so adamantly lift him between each rung so that he gets to each level. That might not sound like a lot until I tell you, there are a gazillion kids climbing past you, independently, to get to the slide. They aren't giving a care for anyone but themselves. And you, YOU are making sure your lil bro gets to the reward at the top at the same.time.you.do. It melts my heart every time. You could easily breeze by him and run with friends your age, but you don't. You help him get to the reward too when he can't on his own.

Preston, you're a beautiful mess. You snuggle my neck. You give kisses. You wipe my kisses off (yet I've decided you're rubbing them in). You tell me when you're ready for a nap. You tell me when you "don't like" or "no want." You LOVE riding in "Big Chevy" and even "Honda." You're decent in school, sitting still to learn is not your favorite, but you have teacher fans and friends. :) You LOVE your Daddy these days and your Papas. You LOVE the men folk and you cry tremendously when you have to leave them.

Presto, you are beyond a blessing. You complete us. You are full of personality and we love you. You teach us daily, 'you are who you are" and for that and more....we thank you Big Guy.
