Today was your birthday. It is hard to believe that you are already two, and yet you seem to have been two for months already. You are still the baby of the family, but you are really no longer a baby in any way.
You are smart. You are already counting objects, and recognizing letters, and familiar games. You follow complex directions with purpose & ease.
You are creative. You play house, and build beds for your "babies".
You are so sweet. You go out of your way to make mommy & daddy happy. I hear the word "o-tay" from you way more often than the word "no". You only become a little devil when your sisters are around.
You love your siblings. You always worry about who is there and make sure everyone is included in the fun, even "deen-tin" (Lincoln).
You are brave. You are absolutely wholeheartedly convinced that you are every bit as capable and grown up as your sisters are. You will mimic their every action, word, and game they play -- even if some of these things are not exactly safe for a pint-sized two year old. You are constantly amazing your movers & shakers class instructor, and your gymnastics class instructors with how strong you are, and how well you follow every direction. You learned to swim with a life jacket an entire year before June & Roxy were able to do so.
You are brave & strong, you are smart & determined, but most of all you are our one-of-a-kind, they-broke-the-mold-when-they-made you, precious baby girl.
Just as I say with all of my kids, no matter how old you grow, you will always be my baby.
Love you forever and ever, my Cora-belle,
Mommy
