So I know that this is just a little bit late but lets just pretend that this post was posted on Brekken's actual birthday:)  

Six things we ♥ about Brekken:

-Brekken is our little sunshine, literally!!  When I found out I was pregnant with Brekken I was a little scared.  I had just had my first miscarriage one month before (at 12.5 weeks) and was still trying to cope with the loss of the baby.  I wasn't planning on becoming pregnant so soon after the miscarriage but Brekken (and my Heavenly Father) knew I needed him then at that point in my life.  I have always called Brekken my sunshine after my storm.  He has always had the ability to make me smile or laugh on even my very worst days.  Without fail he always knows when I need a pick-me-up, on days when my self worth has been low, without even knowing, Brekken will walk in and tell me how much he loves me, how beautiful I am, or just let me know that I matter.   

-Brekken has the talent and determination to be his best at everything he tries whether it is in sports, friendships, school, etc.  He has an inner drive to try his hardest!!!  He isn't afraid to try new things.  He has improved so much in everything that he has done this year.  

-He is a little (sometimes a lot) mischievous.  He is also the biggest goof ball!

-He loves his family unconditionally, especially his brothers and sister (he is often times their biggest advocate).  

-He loves to make new friends.  Whenever we go places Brekken can always make a friend, or two, or three before we leave.  He also loves to be with his cousins and is always telling them, "You know that cousins can be friends."

-He has an enormous heart and isn't afraid to let others know how he feels!!

We love you Brekken so much!!! We are forever grateful that you came into our lives when you did.  You light up our lives in more ways than you will ever know.  

Love, 

Mom & Dad
