Dear Sweet Pea, Today is an important day. You are two! You are changing from an infant to a toddler right before my eyes, and it is an amazing process. You are learning so many things, and you make me so happy to teach you. I am not a perfect mother. I have already made mistakes. I already have things I wish I'd done differently. I have been tired when you want to play. I have yelled when I should be patient. I have not always understood you when you were trying so hard to tell me something. I have been busy when you wanted time with me. But, I want you to know that you are the joy in my life and one of the reasons why I want to improve myself. You are not a perfect child. You do things that I tell you not to do. You throw temper tantrums. You make messes. You say "no" when you should say "yes." You want dessert when you haven't eaten your dinner. But, you were and still are the perfect gift...
