Dear Scarlet

Dear Scarlet, 
Today we went to the Disney Store and you got some Jessie pajamas. They reminded me of a pair you had back in the summer of 2010 when you were just two and a half. We took some photos tonight before bed. I guess I didn’t realize how much you’d grown since then. Because although you look and act a lot differently, you’ve always had that same spirit. I stare at and document you face enough that you’d think this side by side wouldn’t baffle me so much. I guess it’s one of those things like trying to watch the sky get darker, even when you think you are paying close attention, all of a sudden it’s night and you’re not sure how. A lot of things have changed since those first photos were taken, almost everything actually, but you are my constant. That spirit. Forever. I love you.
