Dear Emily,
2 years old! How did that happen so fast?
I kept getting teary-eyed thinking about how two years ago our lives totally changed as you came into the world. Changed for the better. Now I can’t imagine our lives without you.
Week 1
Sweet girl, I love your outgoing, bubbly personality. Your smile just lights up the room and you can’t help but smile back. And that laugh of yours! Talk about joy! You also give the best hugs. One of my favorite things is when you suddenly decide you need a hug, open your arms wide, and repeat “hug” until we scoop you up.
One year old
Not that it’s all been easy! You’re stubborn like Daddy and particular like Momma. And trying to be independent, which is hard since you’re vocabulary is still developing. And nap time… Sweet pea, it’s not time to drop it yet!
My big girl
Things you like:
*Reading (well, really looking through books and babbling stories)
*Alphabet: singing the ABC song, identifying your letters, repeating letters
*Counting
*Daniel Tiger
*Cooking: both with Momma and in your kitchen set
*Coloring
*Your stuffed animals
*Going to church to sing to Jesus
*Running and trying to jump
*Getting the mail
*The Children’s Museum
*Making animal noises
*Pizza
You are an amazing, little girl. Our lives are so much better because you’re in it. And your little sister is so blessed to have you as a big sister.
Happy Birthday Emily Claire!
