Well, she made it! Sarah is officially 3 years old today. I wasn't too sure if she was ever going to make it there with her being as crazy as she is. I think she was going for one last 2yr old fling yesterday and she was a menace!! Her crowning glory yesterday was dumping an entire bottle of sprinkles into my toaster and then turning it on. Yup -- burned sugar smells gross!! Yesterday she also scaled the basement walls to look out the windows, pushed the printer off the desk and pulled out the printer cartridges, dumped out the game of Life (do you know how many little plastic people there are in that game!!), drew on the walls, and probably had about 4 accidents too. The last couple of days she has been complaining that one of her boots hurt and wouldn't put it on. Of course the obvious alternate choice for a boot in -20 winter weather of course is a summer sandal -- we had a few "discussions" about that decision. Yesterday I decided to check this boot out and found a crusty dried out old muffin she had stuffed in there last week. Lovely. But really - she is a very amusing and usually very happy child and we really do love her to bits. She LOVES her little brother and "helps" him with anything at any chance she can get. Sarah is actually starting to be able to communicate better and I am so grateful I can almost understand what she is trying to tell me, because she always had LOTS to say! She gives the best hugs and has the cutest little mischievous grin ever. Her giggle is infectious and she adds joy and adventure to our family. Happy Birthday Sarah. Let's see what new and wonderful things you have in store for us this year!
