Ryan,

Not a day goes by that you don't make us laugh. You are an amazing, smart, and loving little boy. You show your affection to all you come in contact with. The past year, you have grown so much. You have learned so much! Although you still attend daycare, you have officially graduated from Pre-K and are ready for kindergarten.  We still need to work on your letter writing skills though! You continue to be full of energy and  very imaginative. Every once in a while I'll catch you playing and talking to your stuffed animals and it warms my heart. You love to play with cars, trains and Lego's.  We are so fortunate you are tolerating a regular diet although we continue to monitor your PKU. There are days you and Kaitlyn can't seem to get along but they don't outweigh the days you are one another's best friend.  The twin bond is truly amazing. The five years since you came into this world have made Mommy and Daddy better people. We love you more than you will ever know. 

Happy Birthday Monkey!

Love,
Mommy and Daddy
