Happy Birthday Avery

Avery you are becoming an incredible little lady!  I absolutely love being your best friend all day while Kade is in school.  It's just me and you and I couldn't ask for anything more rewarding than being your mother.  You love to go on little fun adventures everyday.  When you get out of the car you look up at me and reach for my hand and grasp it with a subtle reminder of love and trust for your mother my heart melts.  I usually follow it up with "Avery I sure love being your best friend, I'm the luckiest mommy in the world!"

You love playing with friends anytime you get a chance, you are such a kind and thoughtful friend.  Always making sure all your friends hava a piece of the pie.  Your imagination makes Daddy, Mommy and Kade laugh all the time.  At the moment you love to talk about your 4 mommies and several grandmas.  I love your imagination and never try to distract you from thinking outside of reality.  You Mommies and Grammas live all across the country, in the forest, at the sea, in the city and a few in unknown places.  Some of the most popular names for your friends, are Lola, Nima, Roseheart, and Numela.  They other day you told me " Mommmy you are such a good driver you never hit anyone, my oder mommy is a crazy driver!"  I'm glad im the better driver of the two mommies.

Last night we went on a hike for your birthday, it was your idea.  When I asked you what you wanted to do for your birthday without hesitation you said, " I want to go on a hike in the mountains and bring food."  My heart sang when you came up with that idea.  We went and hiked doughnut falls up Big Cottonwood canyon.  We always end up coming down in the mountain with little light.

Your big brother Kade, loves yo so much.  He is so sweet and tender with you most of the time, he does like to tease but who wouldn't want to tease when you scream like you do.  He always comments on how you are so good at making friends with everyone.

Growing up

Avery you have been making me and your dad laugh really hard the past few weeks.  A few nights ago mommy asked daddy to give me a blessing.  You were laying in our bed watching and feeling very sick and lethargic, you had been sick with a fever, cough and runny nose.  While daddy was composing himself before he started the blessing.  You blurt out, "DO IT, DADDY!!"  I started laughing out loud for several minutes, it was price less.   Thanks for making me laugh when I was feeling sad.

Two days after that funny event.  I was enjoying a quick snuggle with you,  you looked up at me and asked me.  "Mommy does momma have small boobos?" Cause you have big boobos, I have tiny boobos!" You showed me with your hand how tiny you think yours are.  I love your mind at work.
