Hey Ava!

I thought it would be fun to write you a journal, so that you would know what you were like when you were a little munchkin! I started a little after you were born writing on paper, but I think I’ll do much better if I can type it out. So even though you’re over 1 now, why not get started!
What made me think to do this was, the other day you were eating dinner. We were eating McDonalds, which we don’t let you have very often (but grandma gets you a lot!), and dad handed you a chicken nugget, and a little tub of sweet and sour sauce. You dipped your nugget very carefully, like you always do, and then you took a bite, and calmly placed it on the table. Then you grabbed the sweet and sour with both hands, and stuck your face in it! I guess you liked it! We got some pictures of you eating the sauce. It made us laugh so hard. We love you so much Avis, you don’t even know. I guess you probably won’t know until one day you have your own kids. And yet, it seems so impossible that our little baby will ever grow up like that!
