A letter to you...

Olivia,

You just turned two years old. You are absolutely amazing and brighten our life each and everyday. You are teaching Mommy and Daddy to smile, laugh, and view this world through the eyes of a child. It is a beautiful thing and we wish you would always see the world the way you do now. Life is simple, sweet and perfect, just like you! Big decisions are what snack you want while watching Cailliu or wether you want to play with barbie or your new puzzle. Another year has gone by and you are no longer our baby. You are so independent and such a little person now. You like to do everything for yourself and you talk in complete sentences now. You sometimes like to test Mommys patience with tantrums and most recently your artistic expressions on the walls of the house. It's really hard to stay upset when you look at me with those big beautiful eyes and say "I'm Sorry Mommy." We are quickly learning being parents that its only going to get more and more difficult the older you get. The whole discipline thing breaks our hearts but we know it is best. We hope you know how special you are to us and when you are in trouble it is only because we truly want the best for you. We love you more than anything in this world and no matter how old you get you will always be our little girl. ( I say this...but please please slow down and stop growing up and being so independent) Happy 2nd Birthday pretty girl.

All our love, hugs, and eskimo kisses,

Mommy and Daddy
