Dear Hope,
How did you grow up so fast? There was a time when you wanted to eat every two hours, and I was ready for you to move past that point. But, now I see my little baby disappearing and a cute little toddler emerging with lots of spunky personality. I welcome the new little you; I just mourn the loss of a cozy, cuddly one.
You are delightful. Your words are coming fast and furious now - the favorite ones being "mine," "poopy," and "mommy." We love to watch you run around the house. It looks like a full-tilt, fall at any moment kind of race. You adore your big sister and generally play very well. Grandpa Bob is one of your favorite people. (Your grandmas would like you to work on their names this year, if you could, please.)
You're the one who reminds us when we forget to pray before meals. Folding your little hands and bowing your head, you urgently say, "pra." Keep that up as praying is one of life's best and most necessary skills. Thank you for rousing me every morning with your shouts of "Mom", "Mommeeee" - pause, pause, is she coming? - "Mommeee!"
I cherish and love you little one - precious Hope Alyssa
Love, Mommeee :>)

It's so hard to believe how fast they get big! Hope looks like she had a fabulous party and loved being the center of attention. She's so cute! Love you!
