Yes! a month late but all the more sincere. Someone pinch me to make me believe that you are already three. I am a mom to a Threenager! 

You continue to amaze me, sometimes by your actions and most of the times by your words and though I can't believe how quickly these three years have passed I can't even believe that you are only three. You have always talked and behaved so much older . Now that you are growing up I only wish I could slow it down.  

It's funny how you share so many of my characteristics and yet you are truly a copy of your dad. 

As you grow bigger I am just hoping that I not only be the mum who likes to doll you up and make you look pretty from the outside, but could also teach you the value of inner beauty. I must be  making so many mistakes as a mother but trust me I am learning with every passing day.

Eventually we will figure each other out.

The past year as they like to refer it as  " The terrible 2'S" but as I don't like connecting any negative with you so lets just call it the  " Testing two's ". We lived them , survived them and now they are way behind. You are so much different  in three and we are bonding to a whole new level. 

This past year was filled with so many new experiences for you like Starting school and though you are going only two days you still cry every time we drop you. You must like mommy's company way more than spending time with your peers.I do feel proud when your teachers praise you and say how nicely you take all instructions, are so well behaved and have a great vocabulary. 

You are always so keen about things and ask so many questions. You would get something and say" please can you teach me how to do it". My little explorer always wanting to learn something new.

You have equally distributed mommy's and daddy's time and that makes it so hard to say whose girl you are. Day time is mommy but in the evening you start looking out for daddy. After he comes you are just like a little electronic gadget added to your Daddas behind who follows with head down. 

For me my night times are  priceless that I most treasure in the entire day. Reading out to you, cuddling and making you go crazy laughing are some of the things I never want to miss on and i simply love doing to you. 

I know you are growing too fast and i am making all the efforts in making you realize the difference between good and bad and I just hope that you grow up to be a modest, caring and an honest person. 

I just hope that our bond only grows thicker over the years and I often dream of doing girly brunches, shopping and trips to exotic places with you ,where we could go bonkers. I know that being your mum it's my responsibility to discipline and provide boundaries that would help you structure your life and be on the  path of righteousness. But it's so important for you to know that I am always there for you and that my love will never ever falter.

Just remember that when the world disappoints you or when you make any wrong choices I will be there right beside you to guide you, protect you and comfort you. My door is always open and it always always will be. 

Being your mommy is the best gift and and an adventure in itself. These three years have been an  absolute bliss and I know the best is still to come . I cry just thinking how fast this time has passed and I hope you go to bed every night feeling loved, appreciated and special. Because you are the most special girl to me.

  There is only one Mahika in the world and that is  mine !

 I love you my angel, you are my forever sunshine !! 

Love Mommy
