SuperBoy Ranne. I love you....
- That you'll make silly faces in the blood lab with the camera and me to kill an unexpected hour with two brothers and no toys or books.
- That you act ridiculous in the car wash to help your brother cope with his insane fear.
- That you talk to your sister and pat on her already, before she's even born.
- That you want to be good at whatever you're doing.
- The way you're interested in everything!
- The way you desire good things.
- That you hold the door open and unlock the car.
- That you try to fix your battery-powered toothbrush on your own.
- The way you feel so deeply.
- The way you're so brave to go new places and meet new people.
- Your loud singing.
- Your prayers of length and sincerity.
- The way you laugh riotously when you're really tickled about something.
- The way you nurture when someone is sick, bringing snacks and drinks, drawings, blankets....
- Your desire to please.
- Your joy and delight in the unexpected moment.
- The ways you are like your dad.
- The way you like to be strong and help.
- The pleasure you take in people.
- Your amazing ability to understand big ideas and complicated motives
There's more!

What a precious firstborn son you have. Much of what you wrote (beautifully, btw) is still very familiar to me from the treasured week we got to spend with you in our home a *gasp* year and a half ago (Already! How is that possible! Uggh!)
Thank you for the smiles and memory triggers, and thank You, Father, for Ranne.
Amen, Sunny. Thank you.
