Ellison,
I feel like I say this every month but you have grown up so fast.  You will be a whole year old in less than 1 month.  Being a mama is HARD work but it is oh so rewarding.  I wouldn't trade it for anything.  I love having you as my little boy. Your personality is really starting to blossom...I think you are going to have my determination and tenacity. (I hope so, anyway)  You are so loved and I hope that you always feel it.  We both say that you are the best thing that has happened to us.
love, mama and daddy
