A Two Year Old

Author: unknown

A two year old is so many things.
A tiny discoverer of butterfly wings.
A hugger of teddies, a sweet sleepy head.
And someone to dream for in bright years ahead.
A special new person who right from the start,
has a place in the family and a course in your heart.
And just when you think you've learned all the things,
that your dear daughter is,and the joy that she brings,
a hug or a grin comes with such a sweet surprise,
that love finds you smiling with tears in your eyes.

Okay, I found this poem and so now here I am sitting with tears streaming down my face thinking of how truly grateful I am to be the mom to my Little Miss Whitney. She is everything that a two-year-old should be:

• a sweet mommy to her babies--including her baby brother whose slobber she wipes away saying, "gross baby." She also wants to change his diaper, "stinky boy."
  
• a sassy girl--"No" "cuz"
  
• a smart cookie--finishing the stories, knowing all her body parts, counting
  
• a chatterbox--she can say anything: vegetables, magically delicious, and full sentences, don't forget talking on the phone
  
• a spiritual girl--"Mom, prayers."
• independent--"I will do it," "I more cereal"(after getting it off the counter and into the bowl)
• a daredevil--"I jump!" "Dad trickies!"
  
• a dancer
• a singer
• emotional--"I crying."
• a hugger
• full of smiles
• energetic
• busy
  
• beautiful
• an "I love you"

Happy Birthday Miss Whitney! We are truly blessed to have you as our beautiful daughter.
