one year older and wiser too...

Happy Birthday to YOU!
Two years ago today, I was in denial labor with you coming three and a half weeks ahead of schedule. Nothing could have prepared me for the life altering role of motherhood. And no one could have explained to me how quickly my heart would expand or how much my patience would be tested.

I have been in love with you since the moment our eyes met, and I somehow fall more and more in love with you each day! Even when you are standing on the counter screaming "I want CHOCOLATE!" and it is 8:30 in the morning and you haven't had breakfast yet.

(2 years ago)

Your dimples make me melt, and your giggle is contagious. You are silly and very smart. A non-stop talker, constantly surprising me with what you know. You are extremely shy, yet sometimes very brave.

(1 year ago)

You will hold a hermit crab, eat a gecko, but are terrified of moss and sea grass. You love to jump off of anything and everything, but don't like loud noises. You love your friends, and your baby tosh, even if you sometimes can't help but hit them. You are my best little friend and I am so proud to be your Mom! I am so happy you are mine FOREVER because I don't know what I would do without you!

(now)

Happy Birthday little rascal, lets party!
