I still can’t believe how fast the year went by, and how quickly my little Nora bean got to be two years old. Thank you so much to our awesome friends and family who genuinely love Nora and indulge me and Blake–you guys made her birthday party so much fun. We found Nora the perfect wooden play kitchen, and she got plenty of cooking toys to go with it, along with so many other darling gifts.
I also had everyone help with a craft project that has turned into one of Nora’s most loved possessions. Everyone wrote Nora a sweet message with fabric markers on a new pillowcase, and I took everybody’s picture and ironed their faces on next to what they had written. Now when she’s lying in bed at night, I can hear her talking over the baby monitor about all the people who love her.
