Anyway, when you get even older - like all grown up - I want you to remember these things about yourself, and maybe I want to remember them too :)
I want you to remember at bedtime when we kiss you goodnight you call me back up to tell me you've had a bad dream before you've even fallen asleep. Nice try.
That in the wee small hours of each morning you come tiptoeing into our room and crawl under the covers with me to cuddle. You're always oh so careful not to wake up your sister for fear you would have to share those cuddles.
How you've become accustomed to giving me kisses before you ask for something even without even a prompt from momma anymore... it might also be because you get a kick out of my kiss giggle afterwards.
When you talk you speak like an adult and tell us how it is, complete with adult facial expressions of confusion, annoyance and sarcasm.
While Norah is trying to sound out words and learn to read you finally get frustrated enough to yell out what the word is for her! Good thing you make her laugh :)
And I will especially remember when I asked you if you'd a great birthday weekend. You said "Yeah Mom it was great!" and you then went on to tell me "Momma, the best part was the cake" in your little sleepy voice in bed that night. You melted my heart into a huge puddle... I never would have guessed you'd list that as your favorite thing!
Love ~ Renee
