Our 4 Year Old

Yesterday our sweet Sonny turned 4 years old. I know that every parent says it, but it's true for us, too; we simply can't believe it. All signs point to this reality, though. In the last 6 months he's gotten a lot taller, his hair has grown down to the middle of his back (when you straighten it), he's gotten more passionate about the things he loves (trains, bikes, soccer, legos) and he's become a lot more articulate about...everything (yes, he is the first child of Ramin and Natalie Razavi). One of his faves lately is memorizing the words to songs from his biking movies (including the instrumental interludes) and singing them to us, well, whenever there's a break in the monologue. He makes us smile, sigh, laugh and scratch our heads-how did we get such a great gift? Here are photos of his day...
Good Morning Sonny!
Giving his birthday gift some morning love.
The Birthday hat. I'm sure he'll thank me in later years for the orange ribbon tied neatly into a bow under his chin. "Really, Mom?"
