Dear Marshall, Today you turn one I mean tell me how that is possible. I remember going into the hospital to have you wondering how on earth was I going to have two babies? How was I going to love two babies? Then I heard the cries of two precious babies and bam I got two new hearts. Sweet boy you have my heart. I always tell you and your siblings that I don't have just one heart I have a specific one for each of you. And that you and you alone get all the love that that heart has.

You came out 3 ounces larger than your brother at birth but that didn't last long. From very early on formula was not something that got you excited. You c...
