Dear Mady,

Madyson Taylor,

I have so much I want to tell you and never enough time. You are now 18 months old and pushing 19 months. You have grown up way too fast and it only gets faster and faster every day. You are truly an amazing little girl. From the moment you were born, you took my breath away. I love you more than words could ever describe and it's love you will never know until you have your own children (which better be in a LONG LONG time!). It blows my mind how much you have grown and how much you have learned over the past year and half. You now say several words, walk, run, understand basic commands, and give kisses. You are extremely confident in yourself and completely steal people's hearts. Everyone you come in contact with, comments on how beautiful you are. You are well behaved most of the time but you do have your moments when you like to test us. It's ok though, because even though I'm not supposed to laugh, it's still cute. You are such a ham and love to have your picture taken. I guess it was inevitable seeing as how you had your very own paparazzi when you were born. We'll show you pictures of that one day! As of right now, I think you are momma's girl but I am completely prepared for that change before I know it and I'm ok with that. Your daddy and I strive to be the best parents we can be for you. We want you to grow up and know the Lord and know he loves you even more than your mommy and daddy could ever think of loving you and that's ALOT! I am so completely in love with you still to this day and it only gets stronger and stronger every day. There are times I lie awake at night wondering why God chose ME as YOUR mommy but I am sooo grateful for the opportunity. I will do everything in my power to love you, protect you, and guide you through your years. Always remember that Mommy is here for you when you want your paci, need something to eat, go to school on your first day, have your first date, then your first heartbreak, and as you leave for college. I will forever be your mommy and I will forever love you. But for now, at 18 months, I will continue to watch you grow and learn everyday.

I LOVE YOU MADYSON,

Mommy
