My little lady in a tiny package. How quickly you have grown into a beautiful, smart, fun and curious little girl. Every day you surprise me with what you've learned, how much you remember and how inquisitive you are. Just the other day we had a conversation that went something like this:
M&M: Momma, where is heaven?
Me: Well...I don't know because I've never been there.
M&M: I want to go to heaven with Jesus. I want to go when you go, and Frazier, too.
Me: That's sweet baby, but it's not time for you to go to heaven.
M&M: Why?
Me: There are still more things Jesus wants you to do here on earth.
M&M: What does he want me to do?
Me: Well, he wants you to show his love to others and tell people about him.
M&M: Ok. Can you turn up the music please? (I guess I satisfied your questions!)
Seriously, your Daddy and I just love you and who you are becoming. You are so eager to learn and you can't wait to start preschool in the fall (you're actually going to start with a few summer sessions this summer!). Your one requirement is that the school have babydolls, which they do, so we should have no issues.
You love your new big girl class at church, and you definitely have some of my shyness, but you warm up pretty quickly and don't let it stop you from having fun.
You have amazed me with your love and fetish for clothes, shoes and all things girly. Your Daddy refers to some days as a rock concert because there are so many outfit changes. Sparkle or shiny shoes are a must have and tennis shoes are only worn when I say so these days.
But even though you are girly, you love to still go outside, get in the dirt and wear your work boots to help Daddy with whatever project he's working on. I think you are just as eager as I am for it to warm up and dry up so we can get outside regularly.
You are very independent and want to do a lot on your own. You continue to entertain yourself well and love to look at books. You have started singing a lot to music we listen to in the car, and you're making up your own lyrics now. I love seeing your imagination unfold as a piece of pasta becomes a map to a treasure and you make up songs about what you're doing. So cute!
Mary-Michael, we just love you so much, and the way you're learning about God and what it means to live out our faith is awesome. He's going to do amazing things through you. I am proud to be your Momma, and I love you.
Forever and for Always,
Momma
Here are some pictures of our low key birthday celebrations so far. We had to postpone Chuck E. Cheese tonight because of the snow.
Celebrating with dinner at Nonnie and Granddad's.
Excited about her gently used but new to her LeapPad from Daddy and Momma. Today she had no limits with it, and I'm pretty sure the new batteries are almost dead. She kind of loves it!
Helping Momma make the birthday cake.
We kept it simple this year with a Princess Minnie (that is supposed to be Minnie's skirt if you weren't sure like Geoff wasn't).
Icing all over the face. Yum.
