Three going on 14.

Noah's birthday, 2009:

And a mere 12 months later, he looks like this:

And he wears new shoes like this:

Smiles like this:

And tries on shoes like this:

I love him because he makes me laugh:

And I'm astounded by his independence...

I love that his best buddy is my dad:

I love this little airbender.

I love Noah!

Happy birthday, son!
