Dear Ian,

Why must you grow? Why must you now lay on your back as I cover you for the night? You lift your arms as we count the blankets just the same, but why not sleep on your belly as you have for the past 2 1/2 years? I take comfort that you still tuck Lion under your arm. And you love to snuggle to read at night. And talk about your day. But you now also provide a full menu of your breakfast order. I watch videos of you from a year ago and you spoke in single words. Now? It's, "We'll, here are our options..." Or "Well, I was thinking..." I know that we need to transition you to a big boy bed, but then what part of baby is left? I will have to think hard about that one.

Love,
Mommy
