Dearest Audrey,
It is time for
another letter sharing with you all that is my heart.
You are filled with so much energy, constantly
jumping, skipping and running. You run very fast. You are also always singing
and I love the sound of your sweet voice. You are such a good swimmer and show
no fear of the water. You ride your tricycle with confidence and now you have a
scooter at Pop Pops house! It only took you a few tries to learn how to rule
the road with your scooter. Your new favorite phrase is “what can I have?”…you
are always wanting to snack on something. Usually it will be cereal, Goldfish,
or an apple. You are getting braver about trying new foods but are still quite
picky. You decidedly LOVE candy. I tried to hold off on the candy thing but
after having a couple bites of Daddy’s Menchies with M&M’s you were hooked.
Now you want chocolate along with gummy bears. You get these treats on special
occasions, when you make really good choices or when you are at Gigi’s house.
You are going through a phase where most nights
you wake up and yell for Mommy or Daddy to “cover you”. I have tried to talk to
you about covering yourself and not waking us up, even bribed you, but for
whatever reason, you are stuck on this late night wake up call. I know it’s a
phase and will (hopefully) end soon, and I am sure someday I will long for the
days you needed me at all hours. Your new favorite “shows”are The Little
Mermaid (you are slightly obsessed with Ursula and “bad guys” in general- you
always want to know their names and talk about them) and Annie; we watch Annie
in Mommy and Daddy’s bed for “COZY TIME!” before its bedtime. You love to hear
“Princess Penelope” stories that Mommy tells and it’s our special time
together.
You are very excited for Halloween and for Christmas. You will be a
Princess for Halloween ( let’s hope you wear your costume this year) and you
asked for chocolate chip cookies for Christmas. We are taking you to Disney for
the first time in December and we are going with the Owens’ and Remmers’,so you
will be with your best friend(s). You make it very clear, on a daily basis,
that Molly is your best friend. I am so happy you have a best buddy to grow,
play and learn with and I am so happy that I now have Miss Jessica. Girlfriends
are the best. I pray you will always have strong female connections and you
will always be a good friend.
Time is going by so fast, and it’s hard to
believe you were once a little baby. You are so grown up, full of life,
questions and zeal. You make our lives exciting, at times challenging, but
always worth living. You are my special angel, my gift from God.
I love you,
Mama
