Dear Evie,
I
can not believe you’re 3 years old today! You have brought joy and so
much life (and less sleep) to Mommy and Daddy. In the past year, you have
become so animated and curious about your environment. Calling you “my
little troublemaker” has made me so happy, because it means you are
getting stronger and able to explore on your own. You love horsing
around with Daddy. Your infectious laughter when we put something on our heads to be silly turns a hectic day into the
best day. When we read "Daddy Hugs," the last page of "Goodnight, Dada" sets off a long monologue about Dadadadada and how much you love Dada.
I think you know how loved you are, Evie. Mommy and Daddy
can’t stop kissing and hugging you, and sometimes you surprise us by spontaneously giving us open mouthed kisses to show your love.
You have definite reading preferences and want to put on your own
socks...on the same foot. You like purses, even when they belong to
ladies we do not know. You are doing great with your walker, and going
longer distances now. You climb stairs like a champ. When mommy's not
looking, you put random things in the closet or cabinet to surprise me
later.
I'm 3! |
Mommy was a little
nervous about your 3rd birthday. Turning 3 meant that your army of therapists, who have
been such a part of our lives, were unable to come to our house
anymore. 3 meant that you are a big girl and that you will go to
school. But in the last few months, you have showed us that you are
ready to go to be a big girl at school, and that you will love it. You
will learn new words, meet new people, and have new experiences. We are
so proud of you, Evie! Happy Birthday, my precious girl! May this year be full of joy, growth, strength, and fun experiences!
Enjoying birthday chocolate mousse! |
Love,
Mommy
