2 years.

Where did the time go?

Another year has passed, even faster than the first and this year has brought so much our way.

You learned how to walk.
You learned how to talk (sort of).
You are going to be a big sister to another sister who will undoubtedly follow your every step.
You have used the potty (not consistently, but you're on your way).

You have brought us even more joy.
We love you more than the day we first met you.
You have been Mommy's very best helper.
We thank God for you each day that he gives us with you.

My girl, what would we do without you? Each day brings new fun, challenges, and joys with you in our lives. This has been a big year of many firsts and with each one, we have watched you do so so well. You are truly our delight. There are so many times, countless really, that Daddy and I just look at each other and say, "we can't believe she is ours."

You are unique in so many ways. A girl with many preferences, somewhat precocious at times, but a tender heart and hopefully someday (we pray) a love for Jesus.

Happy year 2. We pray all these new things in you will only flourish in the coming year. I have no doubt they will. We love you. More than words could say.
