Hudson,
When this year passes, Daddy and I will be able to sum it up in two words to describe you - T-REX, aka Tyrannosaurus Rex. Hudson, a metamorphosis has happened within you - you are now a T-Rex and not a human being. Where did my baby go? You can literally emulate this 60 million year old angry fossil to a tee. It's a bit frightening, but also rather funny. You know everything about it. If there is a dinosaur that looks similar to the T Rex, you will explain quite logically, "No Mamma, that is not a T-Rex, it has three claws and T Rex's don't have those spikes there (while pointing to an area on the dino's body)." OK, thank you Hudson for explaining that to me.
When you are acting like T-Rex, you literally put your hands close to your belly, holding them close together, to make them smaller, you put two claws out on each hand and you prance like a T Rex. When you read this as an adult, just watch the T Rex in Jurassic park - you can walk just like that T-Rex! You roar loud and we have to say, "No roaring," half the time - when family comes over or we go to a restaurant. When you get really mad, sad, or upset because you can't have something, you go into T Rex mode. Sometimes you just pull it out randomly around people or kids, with a loud roar, and we are like, "He's in a dinosaur phase, what can we tell you?!"
I am not sure what all this means. The T Rex may be your psuedo-self, or your trapped anger coming out in the form of a roar and T-Rex prance! Whatever it is, you have passion for this dinosaur. You love all dinosaurs and have now for the whole year. The T Rex, though, he is your favorite and you are well aware that he is a meat eater and not the nicest of all dinosaurs.
I love you my T REX! YOU ARE MY T REX!!! xoxoxo Mamma

ROAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
p.s. ask your Siti about my obsession with The Incredible Hulk when I was younger - how I use to make the face and roar like he did... HA!
p.s.s. For later use - Probably not the most gentlemanly thing to do when trying to ask a girl out- roaring at her... Let's leave the roaring for this toddler phase of your life. HAHAHAHA. I love you!
You can emulate the T Rex to perfection. It's crazy. You walk around like this a lot, even at the beach in Rockaway, NY.
