9 Months

To my darling Jesse

You have suddenly blossomed from a baby into a little person. Although you have always had a personality, this personality has recently begun wooing everyone you meet. You are my own personal sun. You radiate warmth and love. You hold an aura of happiness.

Today, we went to a 70th birthday tea party. Unfortunately, you stole the limelight from the birthday girl. Everyone oohed and aahed at your blue eyes and long eyelashes whilst you gladly bestowed on them cute grin after grin.

When we go for walks in town, everyone from the grumpiest old man, the most nonchalant child or sullen teenager catches a glimpse of your sunny aura and simply has to smile at you and say hello. You are more than happy to always smile back.

Things you love at the moment include:

  • Granny - your favourite person... you love to follow her around the house and tug at her skirt to pick you up.
  • The cats - they love you too and often come up to you for loves... but you cannot resist squeezing their soft fur and the result is that you are full of cat scratches :(
  • Pikey the Jack Russell - you have realised that she can't help but lick you and when you see her you start scrunching up your face in anticipation of the licking she is going to give you... (Side note: I need to look into de-worming you soon!)
  • Playing with Granny's shells and in her Tupperware cupboard... or in any cupboard.
  • Getting into the dogs water bowl... or any water related activity.
  • Bath time with Mom! Hands down your favourite time of the day - and then getting dressed time is your worst.
And best of all... you have just started sitting on your knees which I find totally adorable!




Lots of love
Mommy
