Tomorrow you'll be turning two.
Your Mom will make a cake for you.
You'll greet us at the open door
And say you're not one any more.

We're so amazed at how you grew
And at the things that you can do.
Since you turned one, you learned to walk
And play with toys and run and talk.

Hannah, we wish you could stay two;
With only love surrounding you.
Yet we know in Two Thousand Four
Our Hannah will be one year more.

But until then we'd like a hug
And pray God keeps you safe and snug
And only carefree days you'll know
In your little home, sweet Hannah Jo.

With love,
Great-Grandma Johnson 01/03/02

Two is just an amazing age for a child. I know, I took care of one very precocious and precious one.
This is a lovely piece about a child.  Makes me want to write one, too. --maybe sometime.

I loved this read. My great-niece will be 2 in a month. She's so sweet, as I know your Hannah is. It's a beautiful part of a child's life.

Awww .. your sweet Hannah will treasure this forever. They grow up so fast don't they? My first grandson will be three this month, and I cannot believe how the time has flown. Enjoyed, Chris

Thanks everybody.  

Trillium...I'll have to get someone with a digital camera to take it and that is the only way I could send it.  Maybe I will indulge myself and buy one and learn how.  Joyce.

Totally delightful!

Little Hannah awakened on her birthday with a very sore throat and has been pretty miserable ever since.  She has been diagnosed with a viral infection and her mouth and throat are covered with blisters.  Proving even the magic age of two does not insulate from problems.  Her birthday party has been postponed.  Joyce
