A fellow mom and blogger wrote a post about growing up along with her children and it got me thinking this morning about how that is really what all of us do, we grow. We grow up (some of us), we grow big, we grow apart, and we grow closer together.

This is most likely going to be yet another post about how amazing my Jo is, how everyday she surprises me, sometimes albeit not pleasantly, with something she says or does. How she will just say a sentence and I just stare at her and wonder where inside of her it came from. I am learning more about her personality every moment I get to spend with her and it really blows my mind. She is sensitive, strong, smart, willful, loving and a brat. She doesn't hesitate to tell you when she feels something, especially love. Sometimes she is so excited and bursting with love that she will just squeal, jump on you and plant a big Josie kiss on you. "Ina tiss you!"
She is really a gift to Scott and me and every time I watch Shrek the Third with her, there is a part that just hit home with me, the Cyclops has his daughter with him at "work" and he says to her, "Who would have thought a monster like me deserved something as special as you?" Gets me every time! (Could be the baby hormones brewing) It's how I feel. I need to remember that every time she whines, or cries, or act out. She is 2, I love her, and she honest to the gods completes me.
