Newsletter: Month 25
Giulia,
Today you turned 25 months old. You are this amazingly creative, smart, loving and absolutely beautiful little girl. This month was super cool because we had some very special visitors from Brazil: Titia Mara e Titio Helio. They spent a couple of weeks with us and we got to do some great things with them. You bonded with them very quickly and to date, almost a month later, you still ask for “Titia Mala” e “Titio Mala”, actually quite often!
This past Memorial Day weekend was also quite special because we had Titia Carla come and visit us from Dallas. We went to Leavenworth, Snohomish, downtown Seattle (on a very cool “coffee crawl”), to West Seattle and on awesome car rides throughout beautiful WA. You loved spending time with Titia Carla and the 2 of you got along beautifully.
It didn’t take us long to see Titia Mara e Titio Helio again. On May 7th we left for Brazil for your Dindinha Buba’s wedding. You, again, did great on the trip over and back (thank God for portable DVD players!) making this otherwise tiring process a fairly easy one on your dad and me.
You looked like a princess in your flower girl dress, you played amazingly well with your cousin Maria, swam in the kids pool with Jusia, papai and mamae, had beautiful moments with Vovo Rita, Vovo Toinho e Vovo Nair, had much fun with Dindinhos Dede and Buba, had a great time playing with Malu, Mariana and Joao Pedro, amongst many other amazing and unforgettable moments you got to spent with some very special people while we were in Brazil.
Giulia, our bond grows every day as you and I have become incredibly attached. It is so difficult to be away from you, I have an incredibly hard time every time I have to leave you, despite knowing that you are in great hands and being as loved as ever.
Today there was a moment that will be in my heart forever. We went to the airport to drop off Titia Carla and stopped at the Mall. I sat down to wait for your dad while you and Santana went up and down the escalators. As you went up, you kept looking towards me to make sure that I was still there. As you came down you kept on waving at me and smiling and the second you were off the escalator, you ran towards me, with the biggest and most beautiful smile on your face, with your arms wide open to give me a hug. You repeated this, 5 or 6 times and every time you and I would have this amazing moment when we would looked at each other and you would run towards me to give me the biggest hug... In that moment, it seemed like it was only the 2 of us in this whole universe and nothing else mattered! It was only pure love, emanating from both of us, a love so complete and perfect, which I’d never known existed, not until I laid my eyes on you. May you always continue to search for me, Giulia, and every time you do, I promise that you will find me still there.
I love you so, so much, Mamae
