Happy Birthday George! You are two years old.
We had fun as a family, celebrating your big day.
We spent the morning at Frederik Meijer Gardens
playing in the Great Lakes Water Park.
And on our way out of the park we came across their
children's Japanese garden that we spent some time at.
After we got home, you went down for a nap and the rest of us worked outside.
You were happy to join us outside once you woke up.
Tools in hand, ready to help Dad with a little project.
Any day you get to use tools is a good day.

George, you are such a special two year old. You are smart and clever in ways that surprise us every day. Your favorite pastime is likely working on house projects. You would choose a tool over a toy any day. But you also wouldn't pass up the chance to play outside or play ball. You are incredibly mobile for a 2-year-old, climbing jungle gyms that, quite frankly, frighten us. You may not say much, but we know you understand everything, and you communicate with your own system of grunts. Your vocabulary includes Daddy, Momma, Up, Go, More, Dog, Woof, Ball and lately a good effort with the words Basketball and Grandpa. You are a great eater, and are adjusting well to life without eggs. You are a happy, playful boy...unless you aren't able to do something yourself or if we have to tell you "no". Then you will certainly express your disapproval. Oh George, how I wish you could stay two forever. You are awesome!
