the greatest gift.


when you kissed my forehead and cheeks

I melted

it was so random, so unexpected and the best part was

when you grabbed and squished my cheeks in the process

the sound of you saying, "i love you so much"

melted my heart and i will never forget that day

for the rest of my life

the fact that

your dad was there to witness

the entire event is the best part


you are the sweetest gift

please don't change your compassionate ways


i am still on cloud 9 from that night

it's hard to believe that you're the same kid who proudly

refuses to eat, nap or go to the potty without being prodded on a daily basis

i love you just the same

you are the greatest gift


i know your dad tells you everyday that you are perfect and you are the

cutest kid he has ever seen in his life

your sister says the same thing too

family members are like that

that's what they say

they always feel this way

it's just the way it is

I want you to know that you should

NEVER let it go to your head

stay compassionate and humble

i will make sure you grow up to understand that

real men SHOW their true feelings

you are so sweet

i love you

thank you for the kisses

Hey I'm Celia's sis and I agree there's nothing better than a 2 year old! Putting Elmo down for a nap usually works with us. Is there something he likes more?? Toddler's MUST nap for their mom's sanity. I say throw him in bed, and he can cry until he falls asleep! He'll sleep better after a good cry.
