Penelope Scarlett
I do declare
The perfect gift.
A surprise.
You bring unbelievable happiness to me.
Bright, beautiful blue eyes,
Soft, fluffy dark hair.
You “ooo” and “a-goo.”
A-goo means I love you.
Your voice quiet, gentle.
Legs kicking frantically.
Round eyes follow my spoon.
Urgent, “ooo!”
At three months you want my ice cream.
Love your sisters.
Tabs makes you laugh–gentle hands helping.
Misty makes you smile–loving arms holding.
Cupie doll hair, curled on top.
Soft, plump pillows of shoulders, of arms.
Little hands clutching, eyes watching.
Lips ready.
Cheeks round and smooth.
Oh the kisses, the kisses…
We adore you little Pippi.
All that you are is good, sweet and delicious.
My soul is full with you.

Thanks MOM! I remember the afternoon I had her like it was yesterday. I heard a POP! and I knew my water had broken.
