Proud to be a Parent

Dear Kate,
Next week you turn 2 and already you are almost potty trained. These last couple of weeks have been really warming for me as your mother to watch you catch on to things so quickly and willingly. I talk with your dad daily, hourly, minute-ly, about your progress and accomplishments. Yesterday you did your first somersault and you would've thought we had just won the world series with all the cheering and excitement. Once you learn something you seem to "Get it" like something just clicks. You can communicate with us now and I can see that it makes you happy. You are truly the joy of our lives and all I can say is that lately I feel so overwhelmed emotionally because I am so proud of you. Thanks for being you!
Love, Mom
