Another year has passed and you are 3 now. The time is passing quickly. Seems like just yesterday you were pulled from my womb and screamed a scream to let the world know you are here. You still like to let the world know you are here!
We are so happy you came to our family. You have brought mounds of joy mixed with frustration this year. You are a silly girl and love your brothers. You also cry a lot. I'm hoping this is a stage you are gradually outgrowing. The tears flow and the drama is big. We can blow you a kiss from across the room and it makes it all better.
You currently love horses! You love to look for heehaws as I drive. And you love to ride horses. I'm okay if that is an interest you keep forever.
You play with dolls and barbies but are also a Jedi in training. You love to play with the farm toys and to build with blocks. You play well by yourself and I love seeing your imagination. You are fearless! Even when Elijah won't do or try something, you do. I love your sense of adventure!
You are amazing little lady who I am loving to watch grow. As a mother, and one day you will be one too and will understand, you want the world for your children. You want to give them experience. Sometimes though, these experiences are hard but they help you grow. Most of the time as a mom I want to step in and shield you from all hurt, disappointment, sadness. But I can't, because you need these things to grow.
But I can promise you I will always be by you. I will always love you and try my hardest to buffer the bad parts. I'll cuddle you when you need cuddling (even when you think your too old I may still try and to sneak a cuddle or 2), I'll hold your hand when things are scary, and I'll laugh with you on this adventure of life.
I love you Madelynn Rochelle. You have stolen a piece of my heart that will always be only yours. You are amazing daughter of God with potential. I see so much potential in you. It's hard to imagine you being older but I know as you do you'll touch so many people in a profound way. Always be kind! You don't have to be friends with everyone but you do have to be friendly to everyone. Love big, give your all. It's the way we do things. And most of all, remember mommy and daddy love you. You have Heavenly Parents who love you. Something that has always given me comfort is the knowledge of this love. That They not only love me but They also know me and my needs personally.
When life is tough, pray. When life is good/easy, pray!
I love wish I could express in writing my emotions. They are too big to capture here. I love you dear sweet Madelynn.
Love,
Mommy
