The Super Awesome, Amazing, Livy is 3

Olivia is three.  Well, she turned three almost a month ago but I can't forget it because she won't let me.  She just recently potty trained and so she is a big girl and a big deal.  If I ask her why she did this or that the response is often simple, "Because I three!"

"Olivia! Why did you paint your nails on the bathroom counter!"
"Because I three!"

"Mommy, I want to go to school." she says.
"You're not old enough yet." I respond.
"But I three!" she cries.

Olivia is at that funny age, one of my favorite ages, where everything she says cracks me up but she is also constantly testing the limits of everything. What sets Olivia apart is her self-view: she is a very confident child who praises herself for her accomplishments.  It's pretty funny.

"I'm done going potty. Good job super, amazzzzing Livy!" She says to herself running out of the bathroom like a superhero.
Or upon completion of a task she exclaims, "Olivia saves the day!"

There is no shortage of drama with this one. In fact, I'm pretty sure there is a constant musical going on in her head.  She loves show tunes and requests demands I play them every time we are in the car. She loves "Annie" and all things Disney.

Her recent trip to Disneyland was about as magical as it can be for a three-year-old.  She practically lives out these movies everyday so getting to meet all the characters was a real treat.

Oh, dear Olivia, Mommy and Daddy are crazy about you.  Not just because you are a funny three-year-old but because we love seeing you become the woman God created you to be.  We love all the things that are uniquely you.
