Big Enough is Still Little

You are old enough to say my name.

You are big enough to climb in my lap.

You are strong enough to pull my heart strings.

You are wild enough to attract attention from strangers.

You are sweet enough that I don't care about the attention.

You are my baby. 

You are two years old today.

But you are still not allowed to wear my mascara.

Happy Birthday, baby.

Happy Birthday!
You managed to capture EXACTLY how I feel about my two and a half year old angel.

So sweet! (BTW, my mascara application looks very similar to that today...maybe I'm not old enough to wear mascara!)

Wasn't she only 9 months old when you started this blog? I thought I read that somewhere. She is beautiful and I can tell she brings you a lot of joy...mascara and all :)

If and when I ever decide to wear mascara again, I am calling her for a few pointers.

Happy birthday to this wonderful bundle of joy and energy!
