Happy third birthday to my sweet Lily. She grows in humor and sensitivity daily. Everyday, she picks out the books we will read before nap time. Today, with just a twinkle in her eye, she made her request, Bye-Bye Pacifier, a book all about when its time for tots to give up their treasured pacis. As I am reading her the book, I look over at her in her crib, I observe her enjoying her pacifier, the same way that ice cream tastes twice as sweet as when I watch Celebrity Fit Club. Don't tell me a three year old isn't capable of irony.
And my dear Clara is a laughing, cooing eating machine. She seems strong and alert. She loves music and hates the dreaded bottle. I love her with every corner of my very flawed heart.
