Note to Harper

Dear Harper,

Yesterday you celebrated your second year of life. And what a year it has been!
In the past year, you have learned how to feed yourself, run, jump and do somersaults, count to 10, brush your teeth, sing all the verses to 'The Wheels on the Bus', and so much more.

In the past year, you have grown to love taking care of your babies, coloring, swimming, spending time outside, playing with Ali, school buses, watching Elmo, Dora and Mickey Mouse, Wheel of Fortune, and America's Funniest Videos.

In the past year, you have enjoyed trying lots of new foods. Your consistent favorites have been apple juice, yogurt, cottage cheese, apples, and goldfish.

In the past year, you have become very shy around stranger, but very rambunctious at home with your mommy and daddy! The best words to describe your personality are funny, curious, attentive, and affectionate.

In the past year, you have gained 6 pounds, 2 shoe sizes, 2 clothing sizes, and 1 diaper size.

In the past year, you have gotten to know you family members very well. You love spending time with both sides of your family. You love to look at pictures of everyone and point everyone out and say their names. You are a very lucky little girl to have your entire extended family only an hour away. Your family loves you more than you will ever know.

In the past year, you have made your Mommy and Daddy the happiest people on this Earth. You have filled their lives with laughter, love, happiness, and a sense of peace in this crazy life that we all live in. You will never understand the importance of a simple smile and "Hi Mommy!" or a hug and "Wrestle Daddy!" You are the air that your Mommy and Daddy breath. Life seams unimaginable without you in it.

Harper, we are looking forward to what this next year of life brings to all of us. You are such a good little girl and you bring happiness to all of those around you. Our love for you is unconditional and grows each and every day. I never knew how big my heart was until you were born. I hope this next year brings you happiness. As long as you are happy, your mommy and daddy are happy too. Thank your for being the best daughter that we ever could have asked for.

Happy 2nd Birthday Harper Marie!

Love Always,
Mom and Dad
