Letters {to my daughter}

-
Dear Baby Girl,

If we don't make it through the toddler years together, we have a lot of nice relatives that you can live with.

Listening to you repeat letters while watching Wheel of Fortune is one of the cutest things I've ever seen.

When you clung to my legs and then insisted that I put the 7 week old baby that I was holding back down on her blanket, I was suddenly completely overwhelmed and FREAKED OUT about February.

Sometimes when you get up from a nap, you look like you've aged YEARS in just a couple of hours.

The scratch on your face? Sorry, I was trying to catch you.

Your Daddy sometimes texts me and asks me to keep you awake just a little bit longer so that he can see you before you go to sleep.

Why don't you enjoy shopping?

It seems like you and I eat all day long. This won't always be the case, but let's enjoy it while we can.

Some days I count down the hours until bedtime only to miss you a few hours later.

I can't wait to watch you experience Christmas this year!

After maxing out the free storage on my first blog, I switched to Packin' Parkers  until I landed at my current blog. Will you do me a huge favor? After ten years of clicking away on various keyboards, bearing my heart and soul to you  (guilt tactics in full force) and sharing pictures of those near and dear to me... Will you tell me who you are? I'm dying to know who my readers are! I know a few of you, but I'm curious to know who my lurkers are. I am the number one blog lurker, no shame. Reveal yourself! 1. Email me at kpsuits at gmail dot com 2. Text m

I wear fancy shoes while reading books next to my sister  I recently asked to wear a princess dress for the first time  I try to put on my sisters' panties when they're not around  I eat cereal with a spoon like a big girl  I "help" mom sort laundry by taking one pile out of the basket and putting it in a different (wrong) basket, all while naming the person that the article of clothing belongs to "ehyaehya DADDY ehyaaah MOMMY....eeeeMINE...."
