No longer my baby
A big girl now
Today you are two
Your age will now forever be counted in years
No longer months
I can no longer buy your clothes in the baby aisle
You eat what we eat
You can count to ten
You say the funniest things
You are so independent
Already
But you love your mam and dad
If one of us isn’t there you are always asking where we are
You greet us with huge smiles and glee
You sleep all night (mostly)
You love apples
And peas
You are so very daring
And so very tall
But at night all curled up
You still seem ever so small
A big girl you may be
But you will always always be my baby
Even when your sister arrives
You will still be you
The twinkle in my eye
I worry about missing our special one on one time
But life is about to become so very exciting
And I know that one day you will be so thankful for a sister
Today is the last birthday just you
Next year you will have a little sibling too
Sharing your toys
Stealing your cake
Kissing and squabbling
What memories you will make
But for just a short time now it’s just us
And I will remember it. Always.
The smile that you bring to my face so easily
The hurt I feel when you hurt
I can’t wait for another year with you.
Happy birthday my wonderful girl.
