You've just turned 3!

Dear Bennett,
Your 3rd birthday passed by on the 15th of this month. It was a rough day for me and also rough the day before - remembering the labor I had with you and hearing your first cry. I missed you a lot and I kept wishing and wishing that I could see you just to give you a hug. I love you and I wish you could know that. I bought you a few puzzles to send to you and also the sweetest recorded book, for your birthday. I really hope your parents let you have them. I picked up the book while I was at a store and I started reading it, it literally made me cry and I just HAD to get it for you!
Your mom sent me a few pictures of you this month. I can't believe you're 3 already. It's insane that 3 years have passed since I've had you and to me it feels like a week or two ago. It's so fresh in my mind, the memories, my moments with you, and all my emotions. You are so grown up and adorable. You really look a lot like your uncle Brian, my brother. :) Your blonde hair is just like your sister and your eyes are just like your little brothers!
Speaking of your little brother, he will definitely grow up knowing who you are and seeing your pictures. I hope one day you can be good friends with your siblings. Lailah really loves you. She tells me all the time that she misses you, wants to see you, and that she loves you so much. I wish she could tell you that herself and for you to know who she is. Maybe one day she can and maybe then I can too. <3
Here are a couple pictures of you. You are just growing up so handsome! Your mom told me that you threw the first pitch of the season at the Clemson baseball game! How awesome is that?! You are definitely one special little boy!
