You Are Perfect To Me

Every time I hear this song I think about how someday I want you to know this...

"Made a wrong turn once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire
Bad decisions, that’s alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss ‘No way, it’s all good’
It didn’t slow me down.
Mistaken, always second guessing
Underestimated, look I’m still around
Pretty, pretty please, don’t you ever, ever feel
Like you’re nothing, less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you’re nothing, you are perfect to me
You’re so mean when you talk
About yourself. You were wrong.
Change the voices in your head
Make them like you instead.
So complicated,
Look happy, You’ll make it!
Filled with so much hatred
Such a tired game
It’s enough, I’ve done all I could think of
Chased down all my demons
I’ve seen you do the same
Pretty, pretty please, don’t you ever, ever feel
Like you’re nothing, less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you’re nothing, you are perfect to me"

Sunny days.....

This weekend was amazing!
Saturday we went to see Disney on Ice! I think you really enjoyed yourself although I also think you were a little overwhelmed with it all. Nan and Paps came up after nap to watch you. You love having them over to our house. When they were leaving you told Paps "don't go" and it was really sweet.
Today we got lots of work done around the house- mostly outside. It was a bit chilly but otherwise beautiful day.
Some silly conversations over the past two weeks:

Getting ready for school...
Olivia: I go to school to see my friends!
Mommy: Can I be your friend?
Olivia: No.
Mommy: Why?
Olivia: You yucky.

Giving you your breakfast...
Mommy; Here you go princess Olivia.
Olivia: Thank you princess Mommy.

Easter weekend was super busy- but fun.
Saturday we went to camp with Granmom and PopPop. You got to go on an Easter Egg hunt and you did so awesome. You even won a prize (bunny ears) for getting 10 eggs! You also got to see the Easter Bunny again. We had another hunt back at the camp sight and dyed eggs again. You love playing with Cousin Ben.
Sunday morning was spend finding the stuff the Bunny left for you here overnight. He left you Minnie animal toys and Disney Princesses and a couple books! That afternoon we went down to Nan and Paps house for dinner and to see everyone.

We are so proud of how well you did at you 2.5 year check up last Thursday too! You are now almost 34 inches tall and at 29.5 pounds!

You are my sunshine!

Love,
mommy
