Pumpkin, my sweet little budding musician… You’re dad bought me this guitar for Christmas just a few weeks before we found out you would become a part of our lives. I always wanted to play the guitar and had great intentions to learn, but then you blessed our lives and free time is not something I have a whole lot of so I have not had a chance to learn. I would strum and sing quietly to you when you lived in my belly and you would always start to kick. You have used this guitar far more than I ever will and I do hope that one day you will have the desire to learn to play. It was so sweet to watch you today to strum along whilst singing to yourself then you would stop for a little dance before continuing to play.

Pumpkin, that cheeky smile gets me everytime. It melts my heart. We have a similar photo to this that was taken before you could even crawl, its nice to compare the two to see how much you have grown.

Pumpkin I have mentioned before how it fascinating I find watching you explore things in the world I otherwise pay not attention to, today I caught you with full focus on an annoying little fly that had found its way into our home. You watched it fly around for quite sometime before I managed to shoo it outside. To you, every thing is so new, so exciting. It is so amazing to watch and see things through the eyes of a child again.

Pumpkin, Santa brought you this bike for Christmas and although you are too little to reach the pedals you are determined to ride it. Watching your desires to grow up so fast brings me so much joy and so much sadness all at once. I am excited for the day when your little feet can finally reach the pedals and you take off.  Love you baby.

Pumpkin, You are so sweet. You are wise beyond your years. I often wonder what goes through your thoughts, what you are saying as you babble to yourself. I love you more and more every single day.

Pumpkin, I often when I have my back turned I hear a cute little “uh-oh” more often than not it is nothing serious, but every time I hear you say it I am filled with dread wondering what you have broken as I assess the damage. Toady's photo is your uh-oh face. I always want to remember your sweet little uh-oh’s, the sincerity in your voice when you say it always makes me giggle to myself.

Love Mama
