Happy 1st Birthday, Beckham Glen





Beckham,

One year ago you came into the world and completed our family.  We didn't know then how much more lively you would make our lives, but we definitely wouldn't have it any other way. You were first called "Bubs" by Sissy, then "Buddy" and now you are affectionately called "Bubby" by us all.  You are full of spunk and often put Makenna in her place when you don't like what she is doing.  However, it is very apparent at just 1 year of age that you love you sister very much and she loves you so much, too.  You really enjoy playing with her, especially with her kitchen, and watching her favorite TV shows with her.  You can say Daddy, Mama, Nana, Sissy, hi, bye, what, uh-oh, huh, no, yes, and more and you also imitate many sounds.  You LOVE to eat just about anything, so it is a good thing you have 6 teeth.  You are almost ready to walk, but we think the fact that you are the fastest crawler many have ever seen is holding you back just a bit.  We don't go for your 1 year check-up until Friday, but you weigh somewhere around 22 pounds and you are wearing 12 months clothes.

Beckham, you are the light of our lives and we can't wait to see how God gifts you and blesses you throughout your life.  Thanks for making this past year so special for us and we thank God that he chose us to be your Mommy and Daddy.  Happy Birthday! We love you!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy (and Makenna)
