Walker,
Oh baby Walker! You're starting to seem less like a baby every day. This was such a fun month full of a lot of firsts. First words, first snow, first Christmas! Even a first tantrum, silly boy. Your little personality is shining through. It was such a great joy to celebrate your first Christmas and truly understand the sacrifice Mary made as she knew her son was not hers but was born for us all to experience the joy of everlasting life through her son Jesus. We made our own little family traditions and I can't wait to continue those each year. You're the best gift we've ever received, dub and we couldn't love you any more!
Love,
Momma
