To my beautiful daughter:
You are the absolute best thing that has ever happened to me. Words cannot even begin to explain the joy that you bring to me, the smiles you put on my face, the laughter you bring, and the love that consumes my heart. You fill our home with life I didn’t know existed. Your toys overtake our living room, your diapers have their own closet, your clothes fill yet another closet, your bottles fill our dishwasher, your bath toys line the tub and I simply cannot imagine my life without the clutter. I have always wanted to be a mommy, or “mum” as you call me, but I never knew it would be this wonderful. Thank you for filling my life with joy I didn’t even know was missing. I love you with every beat o f my heart.

Likes:
Baths, toys that make noise, reading books, your puppy Guinness, watching TV, snuggling when you are tired or sick, rocking in the rocking chair, being silly with daddy, feeding Guinness over the edge of the highchair, being tickled, playing with real “toys”(the backscratcher, the remote, mama & dada’s cell phone, the fingernail clippers, baby wipes, Guinness’ food & water bowls, daddy’s Xbox controller, spoons, medicine syringes), music & dancing, going for walks in the stroller, shopping with mama, playing with big girl toys (baby dolls and your play kitchen)
Talents:
Waving bye-bye, talking (mum, dada, pretty, sit, uh-oh), pointing to someone’s nose, clapping your hands when someone says “Yeaaaa” or “Patty Cake”, walking along the furniture
Dislikes:
Taking medicine, having your face washed, brushing your teeth, having your diaper changed, being dropped off at daycare, being strapped in your carseat, getting dressed, green beans,
Funnies:
You crinkle up your nose & make the funniest faces. You smile a funny crooked smile when you are being silly. You bop up & down when you hear music. You throw a little tantrum when you are angry; you’ll throw yourself on the floor, arch your back & stiffen up your legs, or even hit! You feed Guinness Cheerios off the side of the highchair, but will tease him & giggle when he licks your fingers. You love looking at yourself in the mirror and smiling at the beautiful reflection. You smile & laugh with/at daddy more than anyone else while your mama comforts you when you are sad or tired. You are only crabby when you are hungry or when something is wrong (like you are extremely overtired, you are sick or don’t feel good). You also only fuss when going to bed when you are sick. You love to tease Guinness and take his treats away from him while he’s eating, then crawl away from him while he chases you. You do not like it when other kids cry at daycare & it makes you cry. You do enjoy being at daycare and playing with your friends, once mama is out of sight and you are not sad anymore. You are spoiled by everyone that knows you because those big brown eyes just melt our hearts!
You are perfect in EVERY way!
Love,
"Mum"
