Tomorrow she's turning two years old.
Two years doesn't seem like a long time, but in that time she's changed so much. Not my cuddly baby anymore, but a wild toddler with an opinion about everything. Ha!
Year two with my sweet girl brought so many new things. Walking, talking and tantrums, Oh My :)
I'm trying to enjoy this time with her while she's still little. I'm trying to be present with her. My favorite things to do with her are reading books, watching her run around the yard and wheels on the bus. Her eyes light up so big when it comes to the part when the whippers on the bus go "swish, swish, swish."
I know there will come a day where she will want to read her own books, and not need me to read to them to her anymore. I can already see glimpses of this. She's very indepent.
I know there will come a day where running around won't be good enough and we will be running her to soccer practice or ballet, and she'll be embarrassed because her mama will be cheering her on too loud. I can see the eye rolling now.
And of course the days of wheels on the bus are numbered. But I'm sure one day she'll be riding a school bus and I will think of those days when she was 2 and loved it when the whippers on the bus go "swish, swish, swish." And I will smile.
Life changes. It expands. It evolves. She will too. But I want to always remember her as she is now. A spunky, wild two year old with an opinion about everything.
Happy Birthday Hannah Kate. We love you today and always.
