A birthday letter to my daughter.
She will be two on Tuesday. Imagine that.
Ivy, my girl, my heart. You are so vibrant and bright in our lives. You have added so much laughter to our days-- your smile and your giggle, your dancing and your sillies, and now, at two, all the things you say! You are a born comedian, a joy-bringer, a dramatic and opinionated young lady who is impeccably polite and surprisingly tidy. Already you have the world figured out and you know how you want it to be, from the shoes you wear to how we cover you with your purple fuzzy heart blankie at night. You still love to nurse and sneak in snuggles in the wee hours, even as you are fiercely independent by day. You have to do anything your brother does and keeping up with him is, I think, helping you to grow up all the faster. This year has flown and all of a sudden we don't have a baby in our house anymore. You are a little girl, a surprising and wonderful little girl, a breathtaking beauty and a laugh a minute. We love you so very very much, dear Ivy.
Happy Second Birthday!
Two already - it's hard to believe. She will treasure having this letter.
