Bexley Turns 2!!


Bexley –

Tomorrow you turn 2! We can hardly believe it. In some ways, it feels just like yesterday we held you for the first time. In other ways, it is hard to remember what our life was like before you were in it. Okay…maybe we have a distant memory of sleeping in late on Saturday mornings and lazy afternoons spent binge watching TV shows on Netflix – ha! 

On the eve of your second birthday, we want you to know how incredibly proud we are of you for all you have worked to accomplish this year. Tomorrow, we will light the candles on your birthday cake, sing happy birthday to you, and tell you to make a wish! Tonight, it is our turn to make birthday wishes for you.  Since you are turning two, it is only fitting that we make two wishes. 

Our first wish is that you continue to make progress and move forward. You seem to learn something new every single day and amaze us all the time. We said it before and we will say it again…we are SO proud of you! 

Our second wish is that you continue to smile, laugh, and keep loving life.  We hate that you have to work so much harder to accomplish things that come so naturally to most kids. However, despite those challenges, you continue to move along at your own pace with a smile on your face. This is one of the traits that we love and admire most about you, so we hope that you continue to keep this attitude as you grow up. 

You have grown up so much in the last year. You are flourishing in your role as a big sister. You have learned to give the best hugs. You win people over by blowing them kisses and flashing your beautiful smile. You are incredibly observant and curious about everything, so it is only fitting that you absolutely love Curious George.  We can’t wait to celebrate you and all of your accomplishments tomorrow with a Curious George themed party!! 

Happy Birthday to our very own Curious Bex!!!
