#1 Hype Man

 Dear Titus,

You with dad's highschool girls
      I have not written in awhile. You are almost 11 years old now and you are developing into quite a little Casanova. On an almost daily basis I find my self admiring your confidence and charming personality that seems to capture everyone's attention. We joke that you are the "Digit Snatcher" because you have gotten girls' phone numbers (you only have an Apple Watch, no phone yet). You have a little "girlfriend" from church camp named Ariana. She is very sweet and serves at church with us. You also got the phone numbers of girls on dad's basketball team even though they are highschooler's!

    It's no wonder why everyone seems enamored by you. You are seriously one of the funniest people I know. I created a note in my phone of quotes from you because I am afraid of forgetting them. You make me laugh out loud all of the time. You are also extremely smart, cute and athletic. 

    Perhaps your most endearing quality is that you are such a hype man. You are especially MY hype man. And man do I appreciate you! Some mornings I come out of the bedroom with my work clothes on and you look at me, shocked, and say, "Wow you look so beautiful." Or you will comment on my hairstyle or tell me I should "wear that color more often." It always seems so genuine but maybe you have just learned how to make a gal feel pretty. Either way, I love your spontaneous compliments.

   
I always tell you that whoever you end up in life with is going to be so lucky and so blessed. Its is my prayer that she is someone who is good to you and deserves you in all of your greatness. 

I love you more than anything. Thanks for being you!
