SPF: TWO…& Happy Birthday Kara

I had many ideas for “Two”.

1. I could have posted a picture of Jeremiah and I who are the two people in the house that have ear infections.
2. I could have posted the picture of the two huge ass pills I had to take to get rid of the sinus infection I have.
3. I could have posted the picture of how many people it takes to figure out much medicine to give Jeremiah. (hee hee)
4. I could have posted an adorable picture of me at two where I have my dress pulled up and my coochie out there for the whole world to see.
5. I could have posted a picture of …. Well, there is lots of ‘Twos’ I could have picked from.

Because it’s Kara’s birthday and she’s an Aries, we should make this post all about her.

Dear Kara,
You’re the biggest pain in the ass right now, but I love you so very much. You have always been my bestest friend in the whole wide world.
You know that Otter Pops make everything all better.
You’re brave and smart.
You’re silly and beautiful.
I love you. I can’t believe that little girl up there is turning 14 today. TODAY. TODAY you are 14 years old. That’s a whole year older than you were yesterday.
When you were two years old you couldn’t pronounce the letter “W”. You called it “Double Dew.”
You have always been a daddy’s girl, but you have grown closer to me through out the years.
I remember a phone call to your Auntie Kathy when I said, “I am never having another child. This one hates me.” and she told me, dead serious, “That is why I am never having another one either.”

You don’t hate me anymore. You love me and I love you too.

Please bear with our lives for awhile okay sweetie? Things will get better and we can crawl back into bed and watch Medium and Ghost Whisperer together.

Happy Fourteenth Birthday, Kara Lynn.

DID YOU PLAY?
