Happy 2nd Birthday Annalise and Daphne

To my Dear Sweet Crazy Girls,


Somehow we survived this year. I thought being babies was hard, but I have decided twin toddlers is harder. You two keep me on my toes and there is never a dull moment. Watching you interact together has been the best part of it all. You are complete opposites in so many ways and I love watching your different personalities shine! Then when you combine those personalities you are the masters of disaster. Nothing is safe in this house these days. You both love to be outside. You love to run. You love life and you are the best additions to our family we could ask for even if many days it crazy with you two.

The "nicest" photo of you guys mom wasn't ready. My camera settings were off and of course it looks terrible, but I still love it! 

Dear Annalise,

Your determined attitude is going to serve you well in life. You may be stubborn, but we can't but help laugh sometimes at your pure attitude. 

Most days I think you could win an award for theatrics. I love your crazy attitude even if some days it makes me wonder how I will ever manage it.

I love that you love to read books and can play for a toy for an hour content to just sit and enjoy it. You take time to enjoy things. You also love to sleep. If I can count on anybody to sleep in, it is you. My favorite is that you love to sit and snuggle for a long time. You would sit in my lap all day if I let you.

Happy 2nd Birthday Missy Moo you bring so much joy to my heart.

Love,

Mom

Dear Daphne, 

My spunky little red head. Nothing stops you. You love to try everything and do everything on your own. Some days this is very difficult. We have nicknamed you crash or stitches thanks to being determined and insisting on trying everything. You seem to be hurt a lot.

You are busy and spunky all in the same breath. You love to make everybody laugh and are always being a clown like Ari. Your facial expressions and body language can make anybody laugh even when you are in trouble. 

You love your Mr. Bear. Many times if you are upset Mr. Bear makes you happy. I love that you love to dance and sing. Many times if any music is playing you area dancing. 

You are such a happy sweet girl. Happy 2nd Birthday Daphne Doo. I never knew how much I needed a red head blue eyed little girl in my life until I had you. You make my days so worth it.

Love,

Mom
