Sami turned 2!




Dear beautiful Sami,

I truly could not have asked for a sweeter, more precious daughter. I can't believe you are 2 already. You add so much joy and love and laughter to our home! If you just look at the above picture, you will see what a vibrant smile you have! You are super friendly; you always say hi to people and give a big, engaging smile. You ride a scooter like a champ have even started speaking in full sentences. Here are some of the cute things you say and do now:

-Every night when I tuck you in, you want to kiss me on the cheek. Then you say, "other cheek." Then you say, "nose." You kiss me on the nose. Then you say "mouth." Then you give me a big smile. You like to sleep with tons of blankets and all your babies, which you have a keen obsession with (both baby dolls and real babies.)
-You like to do things yourself now. "I do it!" you command. You like to climb in the car and get in the car seat all by yourself. You are good at putting your shoes on by yourself and seem to prefer having them on the wrong feet!
-You love to eat ice cream, Triscuits, apples, broccoli, carrots and cookies.
-You frequently say "Hold you!", which, interpreted, means "Pick me up!"
-You get so excited when daddy comes home. You run up to him and give him a great big hug.
-You love to laugh and make others laugh.
-You love princess books and dressing up for church.
-You love books. You will sit and look at them by yourself, and you love to be read to.
-You are an incredible climber! You seem to have no fear whatsoever. :)
-You love being outside!
-You adore your big brothers! You play with them all the time and have so much fun with them.
-You are (usually) very reverent when we pray. :)
-You love nursery! We are so glad that it grew on you ;)
-You have the sweetest, most beautiful brown eyes! People often say how cute you are, and you are!
-You are the funnest to go shopping with! You run around the store pointing at different clothes saying, "I like this!" :)
-I love that you are both a girly-girl and a tomboy. Perfect combination. :)
-You have started saying, "I love you," which just melts a mommy's heart. :)

We love you so, so much! You are such an amazing blessing! I thank Heavenly Father all the time for you! Daddy and your brothers love you so much too.

I love you!
Mom
