To my dearest Chloe,
You turned 4 yrs old exactly today .. and as mummy looked back at these 4 yrs.. i cannot help but again and again.. thank God.. for giving me such a precious gift in you. You my dear, not only stolen our hearts .. but the hearts of everyone around you… and even the customers. Just today.. a customer said to you.. “I’m sure you’ve heard this many times.. but you are very cute”. Even the town Santa comes into our store everyday..just to see you.
You speak so well.. and you have vocabulary that amazes mummy all the time. You mimicked everything you see or hear .. so well. And basically, you are a good gal. You look like an angel.. when you are sleeping. You are usually not hard to take care of.. except on days.. when you are cranky. But you are afterall a child, so that’s expected.
Besides not wanting to eat.. and sleep.. and insisting that we sit and work on the computer and watch you sleep at 5am in the morning.. you are the best kid and the most well-behaved when you are out in the mall or at someone else’s house/place. But you are so clever.. to manipulate mummy.. and if you wanna get your way.. you would tell Papa.. “mummy say i can have a waffle!” or “mummy say .. i can bring this home” .. muahahhah!! not the bad kinda manipulative.. but the cute kind. You never asked or pester us for anything.. and you are not a spoilt brat .. that’s for sure.
I just wanna let you know how much I love you.. and how much joy you bring to mummy’s heart and life. If there is nothing that mummy had done right in this lifetime.. i know for sure.. that having you .. make every wrong .. right. I love you always.. and just want you to be happy and healthy always. Happy Birthday .. Sweetheart.. ! Yer 4 yrs old now. .no more 3.5.
Love,
Mummy
