To Sofia on her 3rd birthday


Dear Principessa-Sweet Pea-Baby Girl-Peanut,

Tomorrow you turn 3.

Three long and short years on earth, with your Mommy and Papa' by your side. 

Three years, during which we've come to know who you are...a wonderful/exhausting mix of complex contradictions. Introverted in some moments and a chatty firecracker in others, empathetic and kind one minute and obstinate and fickle the next.

Yet, one thing has remained steady: getting to know your truest self, and standing beside you as you, too, learn who you are and how the world works, has been nothing less than an honor.

May this next year bring you only the most joyful new discoveries and friendships. And may you always feel - and never doubt - the warmth and love that your family feels for you.

With much love,

Mommy, Papa' and Samina
