We are blessed to have Sophia in our lives! I can’t imagine our family without her. She’s great at giving hugs and kisses. She has the cutest toddler run. I think her arms move faster than her legs! She has an independent streak and likes to do things on her own; watch where you leave the toothpaste! She takes great care of her stuffed animals and baby dolls. If she had her way, her bed would be full of babies and animals and there wouldn’t be any room for her. She loves to be silly and loves to make Caleb laugh.
As you turn two, Sophia, I pray that you continue to develop your forgiving nature. May God give you wisdom to forgive and seek forgiveness quickly. I pray also that you would know how much God loves you and how beautifully you are made. God did a good job when he made you!

And for the birthday details, read on.
I love how simple, but special birthday celebrations can be! I think the highlight of Sophia’s day was having Luke, Caleb, and I sing “Happy Birthday” to her when she was still in her crib first thing in the morning.
When I asked if she wanted pancakes or muffins for breakfast, Sophia answered, “Cake!” I made muffins, thinking they were sweet enough to be considered cake anyway… Sophia definitely has her mommy’s sweet tooth.
The birthday girl’s menu included her favorites: cheese, pears, goldfish crackers, and cake with purple frosting and butterflies. We added a few other things to the menu for everyone else’s benefit.
Again, the simplest, but most played with toy she received for her birthday: a little notebook all her own and a new box of colored pencils. She was also enthralled with the pretty dress from Grandpa and Grandma and (slightly) disappointed when she found out she couldn’t wear it to bed. 
Happy Birthday, Sophia!
