Letters to Hope

You keep changing on me. So much now that every day you do something more exciting.

I can not believe how much you are learning. You say NO very clearly when you don’t want something. You help clean up when you are not tired. You know that your pacifier goes in the crib before you can go down stairs. You know to hold my hand when we go out side. *although that only lasts for about three seconds and then you run away*

You sing a lot although we have no idea what you are singing. You run around in circles till you are so dizzy you fall down. You are very nice and very curious about other kids and wish they where all as sweet as you. You will go to strangers easily but only if I am right behind you. You still love to snuggle but still move around a lot when you sleep. You copy EVERY thing we do so that is too cute.

Tree Planting at the Elfman Residence

We planted a tree this week, actually we planted two of them and you where helping daddy with the dirt and stomping the dirt down. Hopefully they will live and you will be able to see them big and strong.’

You love to swim and love the water and we take you to the pool as often as possible. You are just learning so much, you get mad at stuff and I can not help but laugh and the whining thing is getting better. You are realizing I think that you don’t get what you want by whining. You are starting to cry when we leave which is heart breaking but secretly I love it. You are beautiful and I adore you.
