A letter to Jude

To my little munchkin head,
I can't believe you are nearing 19 months of age, which makes the 2 year mark seem like it's right around the corner. Time has gone by so fast, you are starting to look like such a little lady. I can't believe all the talking you are doing, and there isn't a day that goes by that you don't surprise us with something else you've learned.
Things I've observed about you during this growth, is that you are very curious. The way you study and look at things with such wonder. If you can't figure something out very quickly, you get really frustrated and make a sort of screeching sound before asking for help. You LOVE to talk and to mimic how Mama Llana talks on the phone. You like cars, trains, and musical toys. You also enjoy legos, your toy kitchen, and our dog Oscar. Some of your favorite foods are yogurt, black berries, cheese and nearly anything with peanut butter. You don't much care for milk. You love being chased, and sometimes being tickled. You love to go down slides, and to play with rocks. You are a very sweet girl, always giving hugs and kisses.
We just recently converted your crib into a big girl bed, you can get in and out yourself, but you still don't. You stand at the edge and wait for us to come get you. You are such a good girl. You bring us joy constantly.
Most days you start the day by wanting to nurse, and by reading books. You love your books! You also like for me to sing to you, especially songs with activity. Songs like 'I'm a little teapot', 'the itsy bitsy spider, or 'if you're happy and you know it'. I love singing with you, and Mama Llana loves reading with you.
Everyday is special. Everyday is a blessing!
I love you!
