Lord of the Rings

I like sparkly. And shiny. And pretty. What combines all those things? Jewelry! I am prancing around the house  wearing my sparkly foofy ballerina costume and a sparkly, shiny, pretty tiara.

My Daddy

My daddy has been here for me almost my whole life. Literally. He knew I was in Mommy's belly before she did. After Mommy found out too and I grew Daddy would read to me, sing me songs, and play music for me. He was my best friend.

He also worked hard with Mommy to get me here safely, and took good care of Mommy so she could take care of me and he went to the nursery with me when they pulled me out of Mommy's belly.

Now that I'm bigger he reads to me, has taught me letters and numbers and colors. He bought balloons and taught me propulsion and thrust. He works very hard to make sure I have everything I need and things I don't even know I want yet. He always makes sure I'm okay and helps to fix things for me if I'm not okay. He is the best daddy I ever had! (Ha!)

I hope that when I grow up I can find a sweetheart like my Daddy because then I'll know I'll have a good life.

Just like Mommy.

I love you, Daddy!

My Mommy

Mommy and I have been together practically my whole life. Mommy took good care of me before I was born and kept me safe and healthy. She worried about me every day because, she says, we were very high risk. She was very careful because we could have been in real trouble, and were, every minute. The day I was born Mommy made sure I was safe and healthy before she asked how she was doing. (The doctor cut open her belly to pull me out.) She's always been a good mommy.

Mommy spends time with me everyday. We play games and talk and build with blocks and tickle each other. Sometimes we just snuggle and she kisses my head and tells me she loves me. When I make messes sometimes she gets upset, but she always lets me know she loves me. When I make a mess or do something else by accident she tells me it's ok, she'll fix it and I'm beautiful and smart and I'll get it right next time.

Because of Mommy (and Daddy) I know all my letters and the sounds they make, I know a lot of animals, I know my numbers and can count to thirteen before I get confused (you start over with two, right?) and I'm working on colors. My favorite color to say is BLUE! It's a fun word!

I'm also talking and using big sentences. Mommy laughed when she couldn't understand what I was asking her and I asked her "Why you da mommy?"

Mommy tells me I'm funny and keeps me laughing. Mommy is very funny too. Mommy and I always love each other and I know that no matter what I do or say Mommy will be there for me and will love me and maybe even help me clean up the mess.
