Kaitlyn Shigeko Rose 3 Years old!!

Kaitlyn you are the light of my life. It is amazing how a 1st child changes how you view the world. I never knew that two big beautiful brown eyes would be my kryptonite. You surprise me every single day. You are so smart and funny. You are such a girlie girl by nature. You were carrying my purse around the minute you could stand up. I used to sit you in the sink in the morning while I got ready for work and you would just watch in amazement:) You are a good big sitter, which has taken a long time for you to enjoy the role. You love art and you are very creative. You love to paint and "write" your letters. You can paint a masterpiece and put on a broadway production all in one afternoon. You love to jump and miss all of your friends at gymnastics. I love how independent you are and that you like to make decisions. You love when I let pick out what to wear to "school". I love that you call you friends, "my guys".
You wanted a princess party which we thought was most fitting for you. I made you a tutu to go with your birthday shirt. You loved and didn't want to take it off even for bedtime. I also try and make your cake every year, they are not always the greatest but you love them anyway!! I made you a castle cake with you were so excited about. You woke up late that afternoon and were a little shy at your party. Daddy had to hold you as you opened your presents. You hid under the table until it was time to open more presents. You finally warmed up to all the guests when it was time to blow out the candles. At the end of the party you told me, " I luff my party. I luff all my guys at my house. I luff my presents".
Sometimes I forget that you are only 3 years old. You are so mature and the conversations we have had, have left me wondering when did you learn to talk like this?? You love to read stories, I love that you track your print with your finger just like mommy when you read to me. The first book you ever read by yourself was Me and My Sister. It was so heartwarming to hear you say (read) the words on the page. I love you Kaitlyn Rose!! I look forward to more milestones that we can share:) I'm glad that you loved your birthday!
