How can I capture such a life with a few words?
Zoe, Zoe, Zoe – you are so full of life and beauty. Silly too. You love to walk on edges of everything. One of your favourite words is "edgie" as you attempt to follow Ekko everywhere. Today coming home from dropping Ekko at school we had to stop and let you walk on all the edges of course. Except today you started freaking out. It has been pouring rain and super windy so a lot of the little seed thingys from the birch trees have blown down. Two of your favourite edges were covered with them and you thought they were worms. For some reason you are quite scared of bugs and worms (unlike Ekko). So for once you rode in the stroller and you sang most of the way home instead. You sang "head and shoulders " (except you call it knees and toes), and "if your happy clap your hands". When you got home, you had to splash through the puddle in the neighbours driveway about half a dozen times before I could convince you it was nap time. Then you fell asleep holding a flower in each hand that you had picked in the yard. My beautiful daughter with your priorities straight!
You are talking nonstop these days. Words are constantly coming out of your mouth. And you love to sing. The dinosaur Blues is one of your favourites. Probably because Ekko likes it so much. The moon is a constant delight to you and you have to eagerly point it out to anybody that will look. You also love trees. My little nature girl. I'm quite proud of you.
I have to get a few things done while you sleep so I'll stop now. I love you so much my little heart. – Mommy
