yesterday

My sweet Libby Lu is less than a month away from turning 2. Yesterday marked her 23rd month. It is really unbelievable to me. She's no longer a baby. Her independence makes me proud and sad at the same time. Tonight I had a few extra minutes before it was time to eat so I told her to get some books and I'd read to her. She climbed the stairs, picked 2 books, and came back down ready. She wouldn't sit in my lap and wouldn't let me read to her. We sat next to each other on the couch, she reading one book while commanding me to, "read [the other] book, Mommy!" She's not even 2! What will she be like at 4?!
