Today I have a 23 month old…

  
Well I know a lot of people who think that turning 1 is a huge deal for parents and it is… But the idea of my baby girl turning two is affecting me a lot more than her turning 1 did. Perhaps it is because we are in such a different place than we were last year at this time.

  

And maybe because I feel like time is going by so fast that I know these simple moments won’t be around much longer. Before I know it she will be in school  and there will only be a small amount of time that’s just the two of us.

Perhaps I’m just a little stingy and want more moments with my girl. More time learning who she is and more time letting her know how much I love her. 

  
More giggles and more silly laughs.

And at the same time I am so excited for her. She has so many fun adventures ahead!  I just didn’t know how quickly those adventures would come.

 
  
She is picking up reading so fast. She knows so many words that I had no idea she knew. She loves books. I hope she keeps that love!

  

She’s made a few friends too. We try to go on walks and run around outside so that she (and her friends) get their energy out!

  

 My big girl! I can’t believe I almost have a two year old!
