we will be celebrating the golden birthday of a special little girl at the most magical place on Earth.
Next Friday her birthday week kicks off with a trip to Iowa to see grandparents, cousins, and celebrate with a little birthday party.
So we're busy gearing up for lots of celebrating and memory making,
but in the midst of all that I can't help but get a little sentimental about two.
I remember last year leading up to that first birthday,
and all the thoughts of "last year at this time I was..."
But this year is different.
She is changing right before our very eyes.
And the last couple days,
as we approach the two week mark,
and prepare for lots of celebrating to come,
I can't help but stare at her and wonder if these are the moments,
the faces,
and the little memories that will flash back to me when she's older.
Will I see that same little smirk when she's a teen?
Will I remember the way she used to read intently by herself when I catch her profile?
Will I hear that little contagious giggle when she thinks something is really funny?
I hope so.
But just in case,
I'm going to keep soaking up all of the little girl goodness this almost two year old is giving.
