Dear Avie,
I walked into your room and as I laid your doll down onto your bed, your little sailor hat caught my eye. It’s there sitting on your shelf beside the door. Your hat reminded me of when we were in Colorado visiting my birth mom, your grandma.
You were coming up onto your first birthday, when we decided to take a trip to Colorado to go see one of your three grandmas; Yes, you have three grandmas. What a lucky girl you are, my sweet.
Your Grandma put together a very special first birthday party for you while we were there visiting.
We had family portraits done while we were there too.
I had bought you many outfits. Among those outfits I had picked out this cute little dress with a matching sailor hat, which you wore for the photoshoot. You looked so darn cute in it. Soon after the pictures were taken, you decided that you didn’t want to wear it anymore.
When you were a little younger you didn’t really mind wearing hats, now I can’t keep one on you.
These memories of you won’t ever fade away.
Xoxo- Mommy
