Dear Morgan,
   You are getting so big. I wonder how many times I'll start these letters that way. I just am so surprised every time I look at you and really see you, and I really see what a wonderful big girl you are turning into.
   You helped your brother today. You helped me today a lot too. You are getting so good at playing with Ian and you are always trying so hard to do the right thing. I know it isn't easy for you to always get along with your brother, but I also see you trying so hard. I am proud of you.
    Today when Ian woke up from his nap, you ran right into his room to help him feel better and let him know that he was safe. I love that you are such a good helper for me, because let me tell you, Little Girl, I need your help.
    You are my sunshine, Morgan. Your smiles and your laughs and your silly jokes make me so happy and bring light into my day. You are seriously, such a crack up. You say the funniest things and you always make sure that I heard them. Today you told me that your T Rex toy wouldn't eat your "spaghetti balls" because T-rex's just eat people and other plant eating dinosaurs. Not spaghetti balls. I don't know why I didn't know that, but I sure am glad you explained it to me!
     I love you so much, and I am sorry that I don't always point out the amazing girl that you are as much as I should. You are so perfect, Morgan. When you were a baby I used to sing this song to you:

  "Morgan Rose, Morgan Rose, God only knows, how much your mommy loves you. I love you, you know that its true, it hurts to hear your cries. Thank heaven, for Morgan, she's perfect in mom's eyes"

     It's true, sweetie. I love you and to me, even when you do something you shouldn't, you are still perfect. Who you are, is perfect. You are perfect for me. I am so glad that I get to have you.

It's for reasons like these, and moments like those, that I am and always will be, grateful to get to watch you grow up.
                                      Love you Always,
                                             Mom
