The age of 2 is magical to me. It never used to be, until Kairis came along. I love watching how much she is learning, and being able to participate in the excitement over the simplest of things. Smashing bananas in milk with cheerios for breakfast makes her giggle and squeal in delight. Hearing her gasp with glee in the backseat as a mail truck drives past us, or looking outside the window one early morning as the fog settles in, and exclaiming "snow!!" It's all just so precious to me. My heart melts when she takes her little sticky hands and places them on my cheeks, stares me in the eyes and says "love you mama", "miss you mama" and then gives me a tight hug around the neck. I love hearing her holler when daddy comes home from work and listen to her try and tell him about her day while talking to him on the phone.
My heart is so full of love for this little girl. She's truly a joy to Tim and I, and we thank God every day for giving her to us for this time.
