Dreaming of Prince Eric

To my sweet baby girl,

I can't believe you are three today! It seems like you were just born yesterday. I remember holding you in my arms for the first time and being so grateful that you were healthy. I also remember feeling unbelievably terrified. I just wanted to be everything you needed as a mommy. You've made me want to be a better person.

You are my light in so many ways. I love your smile and your sense of humor. I love how you think that Bubby is the funniest thing ever. I love how you squeal in delight at cats, balloons, lizards, The Backyardigans, and your babies.



You amaze me with your energy. You can turn anything into a song. I love when we dance and you say to me, "That's it mommy, shake it, girl." I love how you get the zoomies and you just start running full speed around the house.



I am so proud of your caring side. I love when you comfort Bubby when he his crying. It makes me smile to hear you say, "Don't cry, sweetheart." It's sometimes embarrassing, but hilarious how you worry about me. Like when we were in the Food Lion, and you pulled my shorts down to my ankles You told me you did it because you thought I was uncomfortable .




Most importantly, I love how stubborn and strong you are. You've always been a fighter, even before you were born. You will go far in life baby girl, I know it!



I love you more than any words can say and I am so proud to be your Mommy. XOXO
