My dear darling Joshua,
Today, on this Easter Sunday, you turned 3 years old! I can't believe how fast you have "grown up". You still have so much growing to do - but - you are already so big, so able and so smart and so clever. You are my favorite person in the whole world. I really have so much love for you. And we make each other laugh. I think we have lots of fun together in general. However, there are those moments where you and I just do something so silly and give each other that look. Then we bust out laughing and can't stop. It is such a beautiful moment when it happens. It feels like eternity and you laugh with such purity and we are so open to one another, so close, so together! I want to hold on to those moments with a certain tenacity, but it is like trying to hold tight to a handful of sand. Those moments slip away in to the future - in to future moments.
More later.....
Your mama

Terrible Twos - AAAaaahhhhhh!!!!
Dear Josh,
There are so many very cute and wonderful things about you. Things that make my heart leap and melt all at the same time. This is a very good thing and assures your survival in those too frequent moments lately in which test my nerves and bring me to the brink of madness. You are in the thick of the terrible twos. It is a very natural process and everyone keeps assuring me it is normal and healthy. It is necessary that you discover your independence. Now that you have discovered you are your own person.
We are in the midst of getting ready for Christmas - Steam train.
Rabbit died, up in heaven with God. Mama where is the bunny? I want my bunny back!
Meins! Everything is yours. One time you said " Mama EVERYTHING is meins"
Things I want to remember: telling the time, mama the big hand? not wanting to sleep
throwing things,time outs, refusing to budge, lying, negotiating; Language mixes: Mama was ist hier on the table passiert?
Reading letters at 2 1/2 you already know a good handful of letters. A, B, C, M, N, F, E. You know all of your numbers - recognize and name.
