Clark is one

Dearest Clark,

I know it’s cliche to say but this year really did fly by fast! We blinked and you turned one. The first few months of your life was really hard on us but whenever we looked at you dear sweet boy, it was sunshine on a very cloudy day. You have added so much joy to our family. 

You started walking about 6 weeks ago and since then, you have been one busy boy. We can hardly keep up with you. Not only are you everywhere, you are into everything! You no longer want me to hold you because you’ve decided you need down to explore. 

You are not a fan of other people, you will smile at them but if they try to hold you, you cry. But that smile quickly melts people. 

You love your blankie and carry it everywhere. You look so cute with it. You love to wear it like a scarf. 

You think daddy is the best person in the entire universe! You are such a daddy’s boy. You’ll even refuse to come to me if he is around. 

We are so happy to have you as our littlest person. Being a parent is hard, but you bring so much sunshine! We daydream of what/who are kids will be, be kind! That is the most important thing you can be. Be courageous, humble, a leader ( and follower if needed), determined, and gracious. When life throws hard things at you, you get to choose how to respond. Remember to always find the sunshine. And remember how much your earthy parents love you and even more importantly how much your heavenly parents do. 

Love you Clark Michael Adamson! Let your light shine.
