Happy Birthday Lily Girl!!!
Can you believe this girl is 3? I mean, I can but that’s probably because some days feel like 5 days long. Those are the days when she really wants to make sure the boundaries are secure and my endurance will, well, endure.
As much as I joke about her somewhat strong-willed and extremely vibrant zest for life, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Lily wakes up with a smile and is normally smiling when she goes to bed too. Yes, she will challenge you but also, yes, she will love you with her whole heart. I know her energy and excitement for everything will serve her well as she grows up.
My job as a parent is to help her become an awesome human who can contribute to our world, the kind of person who is compassionate and confident, smart and secure in who she is. I have no idea how to do that. Neither does Google. Actually, Google has about 4,500,674 ideas which doesn’t help at all. So I’ll pray and do my best. And, with any luck, she’ll only need a little therapy.
Happy birthday, Lily Girl. Keep being awesome!!!
