You are now 21 months old. It's hard for me to tell people you are 1 because you are definitely not a 1 year old. I can't tell people you are 2, because well, you aren't quite there yet. It's kind of like that Britney Spears song, your not a baby, not yet a kid.
Every day is filled with your smiles, silly songs, and laughter. I could not ask for a better daughter than you. You truly complete me.
Today was one of the first days in months where you didn't get a good nap. You napped for maybe 15 minutes in the car on the way to our friends' house and were a trooper all day long. God, you are such a great little girl.
Tonight, you were tired but wanted to keep coloring with Mommy. I took away your crayons and you would have thought that the world ended. You threw a full on fit. I was able to wrestle you into my lap and lay you down and you focused on a movie (Cars 2) for a few minutes before drifting off.
Holding you in my arms and listening to you sleep is always the highlight of my day, but it has been happening more and more infrequently lately. One day very soon you won't want to snuggle with mommy on the couch and fall asleep. No, you'll be too big
for that. But for now you are still my baby and I will soak up as many nights like this as I can.
I love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be.
