My sweet Mae-Mae…
I love this picture of you and me…even if we’re far from looking our best. 
It was the end of the day and we were both tired, you’re still getting over a cold and not feeling great, and we played pretty hard today, too. But when I look at you here I see the most wonderful little girl in the world.
How I love making memories with you. Even this weekend, we explored new wonders like sand in the sandbox (which you did NOT like!) and airplane flying (which you definitely liked!). I love your quick smiles and easy giggles…they never fail to make my heart smile. I love hearing you talk, and your conversation skills are taking off at lightning speed. Your brain is soaking up everything, and it’s so fun for this mommy to watch.
I love the things you teach me and remind me of…perseverance, determination, grace, gentleness, love…I could list things for quite awhile. Though you are still small, you already demonstrate such a tender heart, and it’s beautiful.
Today was Mother’s Day, and it was nice. We had some good time with you…church, playing outside, taking walks, visiting friends, eating pizza. Over an over, I would look at you and feel so very blessed to have you in my life. You make each day an adventure full of surprises and love, and there’s no one I’d rather spend my days with.
In a year I’ll be writing this again, amazed that you are almost ready for Preschool and wondering, again, where time went. Let’s not rush too much, my girl…let’s just enjoy the days we have and soak them up completely.
I tell you this all the time, but it’s true and worth repeating today.
Being your mommy is my very favorite thing.
I love you to the moon and back…plus infinity. 😉
Love,
Mommy
