Happy Happy Birthday to my Sweet Little Babies!!!!

Three years ago today Madeline and Emma came into this world to change our lives forever.  It has been an incredible three years that have flown by before my eyes.  It is hard to put into words the joy these two little girls bring into my life.  They are amazing little people to watch grow.

Happy Birthday girls!!!

To my Dearest Darling Madeline,

I can’t believe another year has passed. The time seems to be flying by right before my eyes and with each second you are growing into an incredible little girl. You are my spirited child. Although your spirit can be challenging at times, it is what I love about you. With each facial expression you make or phrase you speak I can see your little mind at work. You often surprise me with your memory, perceptiveness and sense of reasoning. You have an incredible love for music and spend much of your day singing songs you know or making up new ones. You love to read, do puzzles and dance. Your imagination blows me away; creating games and pretend play wherever you are. You are cautious about new situations, often clinging to my side until you are ready. But once you are comfortable you are a natural leader, enthusiastic, and dramatic. You begin to have fun and your energy and laughter are contagious. You love your sister and are her biggest cheerleader. You love to sit on the sidelines and cheer her on before jumping in. I have so much fun watching you play together. You are tenderhearted and love to give hugs and kisses to all your toys and buddies. If we leave lamby in the car, you have to give it hugs and kisses before you get out. You are still my little cuddle bug. You crawl up in my lap as if you were still a newborn. I love it when you ask me to rock you like a baby and you look up at me with your incredible blue eyes, saying “I’m your baby”. You will always be my baby.

I love you with all my heart,

Mommy

To my Dearest Darling Emma,

It has now been three years that we have been blessed with you in our lives. With each day you grow sweeter and stronger physically and mentally. You still amaze me with your physical ability. You don’t walk anywhere, instead you run, skip and jump. You climb on anything possible and then turn around and jump right off it; all with an expression of happiness and pride. I am still surprised we have not ended up in the ER as you have no fear when it comes to trying anything physical. This year we put you on skis and you loved it, we put you in large swimming pools and you loved it, and we put you in gymnastics and you loved it. You are obsessed with basketball, especially your basketball pajamas. We now have six pairs because it is all you will wear. You have even asked to watch basketball instead of your shows on a number of occasions and often with your daddy. You have an incredible bond with your father. You are the ultimate daddy’s girl and it is amazing to watch. When you get hurt you cry on my shoulder “I need my daddy”. If he is around, you will leap from my arms to his. You still run to the front windows to watch him come home from work. You are still a little happy jack, not much can get you down. You are Madi’s best friend and she is yours. You are extremely thoughtful especially when Madi needs something. You will give up anything to make her happy. When Madi gets in trouble, you take it harder than she does. You don’t like to see her in timeout and will cry until she is done and bring her lamby. Your thoughtfulness and sense of empathy is admirable even at your young age. And I love how happy you are to share hugs and kisses with those you love. I can always count on a kiss from you to brighten my day.

I love you with all my heart,

Mommy
