Happy 29th Month Birthday, Brayden!
Dear Brayden,
We get to go on some pretty big adventures together. Whether it’s an adventure looking at snails in our neighborhood or a family trip to Hawaii we have so much fun together. And what I love most about our adventures is it’s not just the adventure that’s so much fun for you. It’s getting there. Taking the shuttles from the parking garage to the airport is like a ride at Disneyland. You are so amazed by everything that is going on around you asking, “What’s that, Mama?” ”What they doin, Mama?”. At 2 am when our shuttle pulled up to our car from LAX you said, “Thank you so much, Shuttle! See you next time!”. You made that shuttle drivers week. He said, “I hope I have the pleasure to drive you again, young man”.
And while sitting in airport for most people is a hassle, you love it. You could watch planes and choo choos (luggage carts) for hours. And that’s a great thing since we got to spend nearly 5 hours in the Honolulu airport when our plane got delayed on the way home! You asked, “Where these planes goin? Where these people goin?” over and over!
While we were waiting for our plane people asked you if you had a good time in Hawaii. You said, “Yes! I went to Disneyland. I rode Small World, Tea Cups, Fast Choo Choo…”. They must have thought you were crazy!
The thing I will remember most from our trip to Hawaii is how you started calling me and Dad “Mommy and Daddy” rather than “Mama and Dada”. ”Mommy” makes you sound like such a big boy! I love it though!
Thank you for another amazing adventure, Brayden! Excited for many more!
Love,
Mommy




























so precious! i love your sweet blog posts you write about your son. he will cherish this someday when he can look back and read what you wrote.
I just love these posts. My son is 30 months. I read your blog hours after he has gone to bed for the night and it’s all I can do to keep from going to his room and waking him up to snuggle and play when I read about your Brayden…
Brayden is an avid traveler that is for sure. He sounds like my daughter Ella. She seems to always have a good time no matter where we go!
Great post. I look forward to reading your blog and check for updates almost everyday. I am so glad you all had a wonderful time in Hawaii. My son just turned 3 and he has taken a liking to calling me Mom lately. No Mommy or Mama, just Mom. Seems to soon for me. I hope it just a phase.
I am so glad to see you all had great time!!! Welcome home and I love reading Dear Brayden letters
He can make just about anyones week =)
