Her birthday was on Thursday, but the party was scheduled for Saturday so that we could celebrate with family. She knew she was having a party soon, so she was VERY excited when I got her up from her nap and took her downstairs where I had spent the last 1 1/2 hours decorating and frosting cupcakes--"Aubrey party, Aubrey party". She even took the time to take a bunch of pictures for her mom. Isn't that nice of her?
This little girl brings such joy to our family. You know--the kind of joy that feels your heart so full you think it may burst. Here are some of the little things I adore about her:
1. She is my good little helper. She's always the first to respond when I say it's time to clean up. The other day, she and I were playing Polly Pocket before naptime. When I decided it was time for bed, I picked her up and started walking out of the room. She surprised me when she said, "Mommy. Clean up."
2. She is very tender and loving. She has genuine concern for others when they are sad or hurt.
3. She says the funniest things. The other day I was changing her diaper and she looks at me and says, "Have mercy". WHAT? I laughed so hard. I guess she's picking up a few one-liners from watching Full House. (You know---Uncle Jessie).
4. She adores her whole family...especially her big sister. Watching the two of them together is good for my heart.
5. She always wakes up happy and smiling. Whether it's in the morning or after nap, she smiles and says, "good morning!".
6. She just makes me smile.
7. Her giggle is infectious.
8. She loves to cuddle. When she gives hugs, she always rubs and pats my back.
I love you my sweet Aubrey-bug! I'm so glad Heavenly Father sent you to our family--
