Happy Birthday, Campbell!!

Campbell,

You are two years old!!! I can't believe you turned 2 on August 5th. You are looking and acting more and more like a little girl instead of our little baby. We feel like we blinked and you are all of a sudden dancing around the living room with your little purse on your shoulder and putting on your pretend lipstick. You have such a sweet personality that is full of energy and curiosity. You are so adventurous and enjoy stressing mommy out by climbing to the tallest point you possibly can and jumping off of it. However, when you flash that huge grin of victory mommy can't help but smile at your fearless spirit. Daddy and Mommy just melt watching you run around the house with your bouncing blonde curls and your beautiful blue eyes and we are tempted to give you anything you want when you show us that pretty smile or start bursting out in that contagious laughter. We absolutely love hearing you talk and are so proud when we see that look of determination on your face when you are trying to figure out how to say a new word. You are starting to put sentences together now and while we are so proud of you when you get the sentence right we absolutely love it when you get the sentence wrong because it is ridiculously cute.

Your favorite thing in the world right now is your piglet doll. However, piglet is not the only stuffed necessity in your bed at bed time. We also have your Minnie mouse doll, two bunnies, a lamb, a monkey, shamu, baby shamu, 2 baby dolls, a zebra and a blanket. You are so thoughtful and you want to share your pillow with all of them so you don't have much room left. You LOVE, LOVE, LOVE shoes! You want to put on a pair as soon as you wake up and you have recently starting telling me "no" when I pull out the wrong pair until I get the exact pair out that you want to strut around in that day. You love your purses and your play make-up. You also take great care of your dolls by telling me you need to change their diapers, feed them and burp them. They are so lucky to have you. You love to play your Disney princess CD player and dance around the room. You are such a good little dancer. You love to have books read to you and love watching Strawberry Shortcake, Sid the Science Kid, Mickey Mouse Club and Curious George on TV. You absolutely LOVE to be outside playing and if you see a set of stairs you could spend all day going up and down them.You are SO much fun!!

You have blessed our life more than you could ever imagine. You bring us so much joy and have given happiness an entirely new meaning. We are so proud to call you our daughter. We pray that we love you in a way that points you to Christ and that you commit your life to loving and serving Him. It is our prayer that you always have confidence in the value and worth you have as a child of God and that you choose to have faith and trust in Him. We want you to always be secure in knowing that we love you so, so much and there is nothing in this world of greater value than our family. Happy birthday, sweet girl:)

Love,
Daddy and Mommy
