Freckled Nest

My Dear Nieces, I drew this fort for you :) Every time I see you or talk to you on the phone, my heart lights up! I smile at just the thought of your cute little fingers, squeaky voices, twirl dancing, and the smirky looks you shoot me when we play together :) I never want to forget these first 3 years together; these are my favorite memories with you two... - I got to stay with Mommy the day you were born and help take care of you both. I swaddled you over and over, I gagged when I changed your diapers and I was so scared I was going to break you. It was one of the best days of my life, I was so proud of your Mom and couldn't believe how perfect you both were and are! - I love how you put the marker lids on yours fingers and tap them like you have long lady nails. - It's adorable how u always ask me where Tom is...everytime ;) - I love how we play with buttons whenever you come to Lala's... and you hold up every other one and tell me it's your favorite! And how if I forget one at your house, you save it for me till I come over again. - You're both did so great Potty Training! I love how proud you were of your charts and progress and not needing diapers anymore :) - You're so nice to Lola, for some reason you're always trying to help feed her (at my house and at the cabin). The day on the deck was hilarious... Lola was soaked by the end and so were you ;) - I love seeing you play with the things I make you... and I feel especially special when you ware them out :) - You two make the cabin the best place on earth for our family! - Those little pigtails melt me everytime ;) It was the best present seeing your hair up for the first time at my birthday party last year! - It's adorable how you both enjoy dressing like each other... and it's hilarious when you try to trick me that you're your sister ;) I hope you'll always be best friends like you are right now :) - I love the times when you latch onto me in big groups and we get away for some space... it makes me feel like a million and it's some of my favorite times together! - It's so funny how you're fine with posing backwards for the photos I take for my blog. In this particular picture, I was trying to take a 'real picture' and both of you automatically turned your backs to me so I could do the usual ;) - I squealed when you and Mommy walked to my house and you were wearing these outfits and accessories, i LOVE your polka dots! - Jewelry making and crafts at the cabin is so fun together! You girls are so creative and I love the way you do things different :] - When you were 2, you walked like soldiers. It was completely adorable! - I can't wait for Strawberry Day 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, etc. It'll be the highlight of my year forever because of you two! - I love coming over to play with you...reading, dancing, playing tiger, dress-up, playing memory, making crafts, playing with buttons, sneaking you treats, polly pockets, painting our nails, going to the park, building forts, airplane & playing hairdresser :) - I think you're the prettiest, most special people in the whole world! And I promise to love you forever and ever! I hope I give you cousins someday but if not, you'll totally make my life just as perfect! Love Aunty Lala
