You Are My I Love You

Feeling a little nostalgic lately. It's pretty apparent that my amazing little person is very much her own little person these days. She's little Miss Independent, and is growing, learning, and changing every day, right before our eyes!
I've been looking back, and wondering how on earth we went from this:

To This!

Although I miss my sweet, sleepy baby, I must admit, this cheeky, sassy stage is a hulluva lotta fun too!
This little person keeps me on my toes!
She's the one that requests "Beer" for breakfast, and "Pissa" and "Cake-Cups" for every other meal.
She's full of mischief and jokes, funny faces and killer dance moves.
She's got a love of shoes, tutus, "ponies" (the kind in her hair!) pretty toes (which she makes sure get touched up at least once a week!) and baking.
She's the one with the endless supply of hugs and kisses. The one who can instantly turn a tough day into a good day with one smile.
I read a poem last night that's been floating around on Facebook, and it the absolute truth. It made me have happy tears, and I wanted to share it with all of you. 

You are my I love you
Author: Maryann K Cusimano
I am your parent you are my child
I am your quiet place, you are my wild
I am your calm face, you are my giggle
I am your wait, you are my wiggle
I am your audience, you are my clown
I am your London Bridge, you are my falling down
I am your Carrot Sticks, you are my licorice
I am your dandelion, you are my first wish
I am your water wings, you are my deep
I am your open arms, you are my running leap
I am your way home, you are my new path
I am your dry towel, you are my wet bath
I am your dinner, you are my chocolate cake
I am your bedtime, you are my wide awake
I am your finish line, you are my race
I am your praying hands, you are my saving grace
I am your favourite book, you are my new lines
I am your nightlight, you are my sunshine
I am your lullaby, you are my peek-a-boo
I am your kiss goodnight, you are my I love you

You're sniffling just a little, right?
I've included a tasty new recipe for you to enjoy with your happy tears.
I hope you like it!
Love and Hugs

    _I'm an unorganized, wanna be neat freak. I love my husband and my baby girl, jeans with the "comfort" waistband, online shopping, cheesy 80's tunes and anything chocolate. On a good day I'm kinda awesome. On a bad day, not so much.
