My little toot has made my life bright, delightfully chaotic, and challenged me to grow as a person and a mother. Every day she finds new ways to make me laugh, to amaze me, or to melt my heart. She's almost three and her personality is full of spirit and spunk. She loves the color green, loves kitties and puppies, and is active beyond belief. Her vocabulary is incredible and every day I am blown away by what else she has picked up and learned. She says "please," "thank you," and "welcome" at all the appropriate times and usually doesn't need to be prompted on it. She knows just about all the colors including chartreuse (said "shuh-shoo"). Her counting consists of repeating 2 and 4 until she's satisfied. She loves to pick out her own clothes and loves to wear brightly colored things, just like her mommy. My heart just swells at how incredibly empathetic she is with others around her, and it warms me to my core to see her try and make things better.
As we come into the Christmas season and Billa absorbs it all, I find myself deliriously happy over the simplest things. It is pure joy listening to her point out "those lights, Mommy!" upon seeing brightly lit Christmas lights. And I love hearing her talk about "Santen" and asking her what she hopes he'll bring her (the other night it was pizza!).
Sybilla, you are definitely my favorite person in this entire world and I am so happy to be your mommy!
Cheers,
Kelly
