Halloween.

Every since she received her green dinosaur cup,
she's been all about dinosaurs.
So much so, that when we saw this sweet little costume
for $12.99 at Costco, we had to get it
(no matter that it's never ever ever chilly on Halloween here,
thus rendering the costume useless).



She boycotted the costume at the last minute,
so we pivoted to match her other sisters.

She took a little breather, but then came into her full self:
keeping up with the big siblings,
loving the personal interactions with each neighbor,
shouting greetings and farewells of great joy and love
with all her heart. 

She loves big, she loves freely.
I love it about her.

She's so typically a 2-year old, with all the begging for repetition, and shouts of "mine!", love of destruction all throughout the house. And yet, she's so untypical to me. Every breath of hers is one I find miraculous. I wonder if the wonder of her life will every cease to astound me. We miss you.
