Today is your second birthday and I'm finding myself daydreaming and reminiscing about the past two years. The time has passed so quickly and I can not believe this day is here already. The teeny tiny little bundle we brought home has grown into an adorable, strong willed, independent, funny little lady. Not a day goes by when you don't amaze me with the things you know, do, and say. You have taught me how to slow down, take a breath and enjoy the simple things in life. There are so many things that I love about you. I love how excited you get when you see birdies and try to "see 'em". I love how much you're fascinated by the moon and want to "see it", "have it" and "eat it". I love how you say "I love you too, Mommy" when you give me hugs and kisses. I love that your favorite song is Happy Birthday and you make me sing it a dozen times before bed. I love how you know all of the words to "Goodnight Moon" because we've read it so many times. I love how you smile and say "hi" or "how are ya" to everyone you see. I love how much you love going to Target. I love watching you play with your baby dolls - wrapping them up, feeding them, changing their diapers, taking them for walks and talking to them in a high squeaky voice the way grown ups do. I love it when you tell me that you want to do things yourself by saying "leave me alone". I love it when you say "ummmm" when I ask you a question you need to think about. I love how you say "um, hi!" over and over again when you talk on you're pretend phone. I could go on and on forever. I love you more than you'll ever know. You are an amazing little lady and I couldn't be prouder to be your Mommy. I can't wait to see what surprises you have in store for us next year. Happy Birthday, Ladybug!
Love Always, Mommy
