What will you be?
Dear Audrina,
Today Audrina we spent time with you while your brother was with Grandma, riding the "trains", aka the Dart rails. We took you to get new shoes and I think you are truly becoming a little girl. You kept bringing me pairs of shoes to try on you. You would waddle to the shoe bins and pick out a pair and bring them to me to put on your feet. I'm amazed at how much you comprehend now. You are 14 1/2 months old now and you know everything I'm saying. You follow directions and are able to communicate your wants and needs. When your thirsty you make the sign for drink, when you want more, you make the sign for more. You point and you holler and you smile and clap. Today you saw a picture of a dog and you pointed and started to bark, "Woooo wooo wooo" I didn't realize you knew that. You continue to amaze me everyday with something new.
I look at you today and I wonder...what will you be like when you grow up? Will you want to be a ballerina, an astronaut, a doctor? Will you want your nails painted and your hair done or will you be content to roll around in the mud and get dirty? Your brother has always been a boy, through and through. From the very beginning we knew he was an athlete. He loved to catch and throw and wrestle and play. He has grown up to be the way I've always imagined him to be. But you are truly an enigma. You love your Barbies and baby dolls. I love to watch you as you hug your dolls; patting her on the back and giving her a kiss. BUT you also love your brothers toys. You love to run outside, throw the balls, and get dirty. One of my favorite things to watch is you jump on your daddy and bounce on him. You want him to wrestle with you and when he does you go into a fit of laughter. When he's done you go and run and jump on him again, hoping he will tickle you some more. In some ways, my little girl, your tougher then your brother and in others your a little princess. When your father or I get on to you, you poke out your bottom lip and tears come pouring down as if your whole world has ended, but on the other hand you can run around and fall and scrape your knees and yet you refuse to cry. What will you be my baby girl? I can't wait to find out...
Love you always and forever,
Mommy

oh man! The bottom lip maneuver! That is totally Faith! I'd love to see a picture of that.
I love that she's so girly, and yet not your typical, fragile princess girl. She wrestles with Oscar and wants to play with boy toys. Sounds just like Maddie and Faith, and I love that!
