Man, are you fun! And cute? Come ON! We can't believe that you're already two, Silas -- you simply could not be more sweetly innocent.

This last year with you has just been the greatest. From your belly laugh to your non-stop "thank you, Mommy; thank you, Daddy"s, you knock us out. We can't wait to see what this third year brings!

Love,
Mommy & Daddy
