How is it possible that you are nine today? Lately, I have been spending a lot of time looking through pictures and videos of you over the years. I love seeing you as a cute, sweet and chubby baby, a smiley, precocious and silly toddler and now a kind, smart and beautiful little girl. As I always say, you are my favorite girl.
You truly are a perfect mix of mommy and daddy. You have daddy’s lackadaisical side when it comes to life. You also have his sense of adventure and fun. From me, you get order and consistency as well as a listening ear and the ability to remember every word to every song. From both of us, you get lots of love and support in anything you decide to to.
I love our girls’ trips, watching Hallmark movies together, baking and simply talking with you. Your adventurous spirit is one of my favorite things about you, sweet girl. You love trying new activities and foods and would rather run around outside than just about anything else.
When asked to describe you, Avery, the first word that always comes to mind is "happy". You always have a smile on your face and are the ultimate optimist. The world could use a lot more people like you.
Love, mommy
