Happy 18 Months Lily

Wow - you certainly are a toddler and here is how I know this:

• you feed yourself with a spoon and sometimes a fork (on occasion your hands)


• you never let me help you eat


• you talk on your play phone and look like mommy


• you sign "more", say "more" and then scream for "more"


• you want to walk rather than sit in your stroller


• you really kiss me when I ask for one


• your eyes light up when we look at your shoes


• you prefer to drink from a grown-up cup


• you have 14 teeth and I see two more coming in


• you hug all your teddy bears


• you can sit at the table with the adults


• you want to read all your books in 10 min.


• you pet Charlotte "gently"


• you are moving from infants to the toddler room today

Oh Lily - I am so happy and you are the reason for that. I love our family that we have created. Happy Birthday to you on your 18 months - which is such a milestone.

Love Mommy xoxo

P.S. please don't grow up too fast
