Dearest Eleanor


You are now 2 years old. I cannot believe how quickly two years has passed and how much you have grown and changed from a tiny, precious newborn into such a beautiful, joy-filled little girl. Eleanor you bring such joy to our home. Your daddy and I love you so very much and are so thankful to be your parents.

You are still our little Kamikaze and have several battle wounds to prove it. Your shins are bruised, your knees are skinned, and your elbows as well. But those owies rarely slow you down. To say you keep us on our toes is an understatement, but we wouldn't want it any other way.

We love to hear you say "I luff you" and can't get enough of your hugs and kisses. You are very generous and numerous times a day we hear "want some" as you offer us whatever it is you are eating or drinking. You are also very sensitive. It bothers you when other children cry and you will quickly run to the aide of your friends with a gentle hug and a reassuring "it's ok." Just recently you started telling us to "be careful." I am afraid you might become a little worrywart like your momma, but I love your gentle spirit.

I cannot wait to see how much you continue to change and grow in this next year.

We love you to the moon and back!
