What a lucky girl! Anna Leita had a very fun party complete with a pink princess cake and root beer that Grandpa Kent made upon her request. A lot of people love Anna!
We also went to the aquarium for family night making it quite a special birthday.
And here are some things that I want to remember about Anna as a two year old (now that she is three and doesn't need a stool to reach her toothbrush) . .
- Anna Leita sings so pretty. She stands up on our window seat in the living room and performs for us, and when we clap, she takes a bow. Her repertoire includes "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream. . .", "I am like a star shining brightly", and "A dream is a wish your heart makes".
- Anna went through a stage when she wore a princess dress or a tutu every day and all the time, except at church. We took Anna the princess to the grocery store every week, the playground, the Dinosaur museum, and to Disney land.
- Anna knows how to be happy. One day when I was frustrated with her about something--I said, "Anna, this does not make me happy!" She told me "Mommy, being happy is a choice you make--you can make a choice to be happy or grumpy."
- Anna Leita is a sweet big sister. She shares almost everything she has with Max and when he is sad she sings him lullabies.
- Anna likes to make things fancy. When she wakes up early she comes and gets in bed with mommy and daddy. One morning she brought her stickers with her and when we woke up there was a "sticker celebration" all over our bed.
