OH. MY.
What to do.
M is three!
Madelyn,
Your mommy and daddy still cannot get over the fact that you turned three today!
We love the fact that you are growing and learning so much,
but it boggles our mind to see it happening all so quickly.
You are kind, creative, sensitive, timid.
You like to watch and listen.
You like to try things all by yourself.
You stick your tongue out when you are working on something like your daddy.
You stick out your tongue out of nervousness or shyness towards situations and others.
You love to build with blocks, play with cars and take care of babies.
You love to do school work.
You love to use your hands whether it's helping mommy in the kitchen,
playing with playdough or coloring.
You are picky.
You get really grumpy when you are tired or hungry.
You are so very much unique and different in the way you do and see things.
I hope you always see that as a positive and never
try to change or mold to fit in better.
You make friends easily because you are perfect in every which way.
You are patient.
You let others go first.
You try to help others by showing and teaching.
But you also have a hard time finding new friends because of your timidness
and the 'grown up' way you play.
You don't understand child play interaction as well as others might.
You have a wild imagination and don't mind playing by yourself.
You love to play with your cousins, but understand when it's time to go home.
You still adore Goosey girl and always tell me how you love Goosey.
But Liam is your man.
He is your pal.
You two play so well together even though you fight like siblings sometimes.
And you are so inquisitive of Baby Jo.
You are always asking if she will be there and telling me how Jo can do this now
or you want to show Jo how to do that.
You adore all three cousins and I am so thankful for that.
You are a free thinker.
But you also like to stick by the book.
You like to tell others what to do-
especially if they aren't doing it right.
You like to do things your own way
and it may not always make the most sense or be correct,
but it doesn't matter-
at least not yet.
We love you more than anything in this world!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy
