+ So sweet! +
You've been hugging your stuffed animals - and us - for a while now. But I just read this in your weekly development update on American Baby, and it really did almost make me cry. You are so lovey-dovey with most things, I guess it probably does reflect how we handle you. Daddy and I both shower you with hugs and kisses constantly:

"Moms, dads, and siblings aren't the only recipients of baby's love at this point. She'll hug or lie on top of other toddlers, and will even behave tenderly toward her favorite toys. The capacity to love and nurture is a direct imitation of your behavior toward her, so take it as a compliment--it means you're one heck of a mom."
