Birthday



Yes, you are a big girl. 

Happy Birthday, my purple-orange sunshine.


I love the way you say "hoob" for hood.
I love the way you say "tub tub" for bathtub
I love that you still want to cuddle 
I love your laugh
I love it when you sing at the top of your lungs while going for a walk
I love your stinky feet
I love when you talk to your dolls

However, 

I don't love how sometimes, I feel like you're slipping away from me
I don't love how as you get older, you start to lose your innocence and learn that this world ain't so great as you think, and that people aren't as they seem.
I don't love how much growing up you have to have done in the past year and a half (and you did so good)
I don't love how I have to share you

That's the way life is. Good and bad. One day at a time.

You are my darling, my baby, and I love you. ThiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiS much - to the moon and back.

Izzybelle! This is so very late! But we miss you, and all of us send you a huge hug and kiss. We have something for you travelling with Aunt Per Per, so you can have a late birthday pressie when she arrives! We cannot believe you are three. *insert: big kiss, Jie!* We think of you often. Enjoy the present!

MUCH LOVE, The Tans.
