fifteen & sixteen.


months fifteen & sixteen, 

you've been colored on with lots of crayons. 
you've had naps in a big girl bed. 
you've met the words please and thank you. 
forks and spoons are finally being put to proper use. 
summer pool days, accompanied with arm floaties, are a favorite of yours. 
stickers, dancing, puzzles, blowing kisses, climbing up and down, mimicking mama, 
and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches 
fill your time.
not to mention, tantrums, sass, and a will like no other. 

I pray, pray, pray you use that will of yours to invoke love whenever you can...
because your strong determination, partnered with your inviting joy, will undoubtedly enlighten this world. 

months fifteen & sixteen, 

you've been great. really, really great.
