To My Dearest Pea,
The past two years have been an incredible journey for me. I know you’ve heard me say the first year with you was brutally hard. I was overwhelmed with what I was suppose to do for you.
This past year I think I’ve grown into my role as your mother. I’m getting a hang of the basics: what to feed you, how to dress you, clean you, educate and entertain you. I’m getting to know you. I think I’m figuring out how to guide you through the world in the best way that suits who you are. I feel lucky to be your mother.
You amaze me everyday. In the recent months you’re saying new words daily. Even my curse words you’ve learned well. You mimic a lot of what I do actually. It’s an amazing compliment and you are a mirror of my good and bad. You put groceries away. You clean. You want to help me with chores. You like grocery shopping, as do I. You love TV, as do I.
It’s incredible to see how quickly you figure out everyone and every things purpose in the world. You make me see the world in a new way.
I can’t believe it’s been two years since we met for the first time. It’s now going by quickly. I’m so excited about who you are and who you are becoming. I’m not sure why I was so excited for your second birthday. Maybe because its the first one we’re really getting to share together.
I love you so so much.
It’s indescribable!
Happy 2nd Birthday My Pea!
