Big Kisses

Dear Mackenzie,

Current cute behaviors:

-When you see a photo that you're not in, you inquire about where you are by asking, "Me go?"

-The other night, you got your toy camera and took a selfie of the two of us by standing next to me, holding the camera up, wrapping your arm around my neck and yanking me (kinda hard, btw) close to you.

-Sometimes when you talk to me, you get superclose to my face so that the tips of our noses are touching. I think it's your way of making sure you have my undivided attention!

-You really love when I read to you. Whenever we finish reading a pile of books, you say, "More! More!" Your favorite books at the moment are Blankie, Potty, Mommy Hugs, Daddy Hugs, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo (which you call "Bobby Boo") and Elmo Can Use the Potty. (Two potty books! Guess you really are ready for potty training.) 

-You love to hide (whether it's under a blanket or just behind your hands) and then come out and scream, "Boo!" When I act scared, you giggle so cutely!

-You often pretend to be a cat, crawling into my lap and meowing.

-Yesterday, you were helping me make baked oatmeal and I let you mix the batter. When you were done, you pumped your fists in the air and shouted, "Yay! I did it! I mixed Mama!" Also yesterday, when I cracked the egg, some raw egg shot across your face and onto your hair. Aaaggh! Sorry!

-When Daddy takes your siblings to school, you like to run to the window and watch them drive away. This morning, you held up your bunny and said, "Bunny see." Then you made the bunny wave its arm and say in a high-pitched voice, "Bye! See you later!"

-You were drawing at my desk and I asked you put the pencil back. When you did, you again cheered yourself on and said, "Yay! I did it! I Mama pencil back!"

-You often give me the most passionate kisses! You press your lips on me so hard that your head shakes back and forth! Love it!

Love,

Mom
