Hurricane Evalynn (as we like to call her) is trouble with a capital T. Her nickname does not do her justice. Simply leaving the room for a moment will result in Vaseline on a couch, diaper cream on a dresser or strawberry syrup on the floor and fridge. When she sets her mind to something she goes all out! Mike will often receive messages at work detailing the path of destruction that has occurred that day.
Then comes the eye of the storm. You know the destruction will return but you can't help but enjoy the calm. In these moments she is sweeter than sugar. She rocks her baby brother saying softly "shhhh baby, oh baby baby it doh-day", she nurses her dolls, she feeds you from her kitchen and brings you unlimited drinks from her singing tea pot.
She is determined, focused, and stubborn (where on earth could THAT have come from?). You know she won't let anyone push her around. Much to Daddy's delight she refuses to hold hands with the neighbourhood boys or kiss cuties on a bridge while on vacation. Evalynn loves kitties, purses, shoes and pink. Painted nails, makeup and playing mommy are on the agenda.
Evalynn, for the past 2 years you have brought joy and excitement in our lives to a new level and we look forward to many more years of the same! We love you!
*sigh* yes my son is heartbroken she wont smooch him... she really is wonderful! Birthday wishes to Evalynn
