Dear Jacob-
There comes a point when things become natural and how things were before is forgotten.
You have grown cautious.
Your personality has either developed or you have found many new ways of expressing it:
You are more demanding in some ways and so very independent in others.
You are physically capable.
You communicate like never before.
You always smile and everyone adores you.
You have a clear place in our family and it fits beautifully.
You love doggies.
The only time you are ever really unhappy is when you have an ear infection.
