Dear Mia,
Tonight when I was putting you to bed, all I could think about was how fast these two years have gone by. You have brought us so much joy and laughter in such a short time.
You are a beautiful, fun little girl that has a bit of a naughty side. You love coloring, painting, and just about anything that has to do with art. You love to sing and dance and have more rhythm than anyone in our family. You enjoy reading books, but only specific books that you choose. This spring you started gymnastics at the Little Gym and love it. You are so active and have no fear that at times it can be a little scary. You love running around, jumping, and climbing on just about anything. You seem to really love any type of physical activity that you try, and I can't wait to watch you play what ever it is you choose to play.
Most days you walk around in the nude. I can keep you dressed for about two hours and then you strip down the first chance you get. You have even been known to put a few outfits in the trash when I am not looking. This winter it snowed a lot and instead of being bundled up, you were naked the entire time. Just when your Daddy and I think you won't be able to get out of what ever new piece of clothing we put you in, you turn into Houdini and master it within seconds. I am hoping that your lack of wanting to wear a diaper will lead to easy potty-training.
Mia, you live off of eggs, cheese, and chocolate and refuse to drink anything except milk and coffee. Once I had set a cup of coffee down on the table and walked off into another room. When I came back in, I found you on the floor drinking the cup of coffee and saying "Yummy"! From that day on, you come running when you hear or smell the coffee maker working its magic. You don't quite understand today why I won't let your drink a cup of joe, but I promise when you leave for college I will buy you your very own coffee maker.
I am fairly certain that your laugh is one of the best sounds I have ever heard. You actually have two laughs. One is just your everyday laugh that you use whenever you think something is slightly funny or when you are just trying to amuse us. While this laugh is super cute, your second laugh could possibly bring world peace. It comes from deep down in your soul and when I hear it, I know you are truly happy. Not only do you have the best laugh, you have the sweetest voice. You are just learning to put sentences together, and it is so much fun to hear what you have to say.
Happy Birthday my sweet Amelia Grace. We are so happy to have you and look forward to hearing your laughter every day of our lives!
Love Mommy and Daddy
