Where has the time gone?

I cannot believe that I am a mother of a 3 year old little girl. Gracelyn has completely changed my life. I went from being Jenna Marie Boeckmann (Torud) to being Gracelyn Kate's mom. The most rewarding job and title I will ever have. She makes every day of my life better. She is the funniest person I know. The things that come out of her little mouth amaze me! This evening she cried herself to sleep because she wants to be a big "brother" so, so bad. Yeah, I did explain to her that she will never be a big brother because she happens to be a girl. But hopefully she will become a big sister within the next year (fingers crossed)!

At three Gracelyn:
Loves babies and pregnant women!
Loves Berenstain Bears!
Loves her mom...tells me all the time that she wants to "stay home with me"...and then I have to proceed to explain to her why I have to still go to work....super hard :-(
Loves her daddy! They love to play ball, horse around, and tease me!
Loves to watch home videos of herself as a baby!
Loves to sing and dance to music!
Her favorite thing to do is to play with her dolls!
Favorite thing to eat is probably meat - any kind! She eats the meat off her plate first!
Loves to look at pictures (mainly of babies)
Loves to read books (usually that have babies in them).

Are you sensing a theme? She only asks me if I am pregnant at least once a day!

She is the light of our life and I am soo lucky to be her mom!
