Violet Aurora Ditto
Yesterday you received a name and a blessing among the records of the church from your father.
You were blessed with
a remarkable, strong spirit
a desire to come to the world and to be a light to those around you
the ability to discern between right and wrong, and to be attracted to the light
the ability to see through the temptations and trials of the world
the ability to lift those around you to higher and nobler things
courage, and to be a leader
leadership ability to be mindful of those not blessed with such courage
the ability to develop a deep and abiding testimony of the Jesus Christ at a young age
staying strong and finding a young man who will be prepared to take you to the temple; he will be your equal and your companion
the ability to be a strength to those around you
and to be happy and optimistic throughout your life.
We love the Mecham's and the Ditto's!
You are exactly two months old today, little Cuddle Bug.
You are such a snuggly, squishy baby. Everyone comments on your delectable cheeks!
We have lovingly nicknamed you our "little werewolf" because you tend to cry every night around 10:30 for anywhere from two to four hours. It's been rough but we're finding ways to get through it!
I honestly think you came to this world to be heard and to make a difference. You truly are a "remarkably strong spirit" and we can feel it. After all, you did prompt me that you were anxious to come to earth even before I was pregnant with you. And now that you are giving me your toothless smiles every day, each night of terrible sleep is so worth it!
You love hearing your sister talk away, and my oh my does she adore you more than I could ever have dreamed. She calls you "Lady Bydeet" and often squeals in delight when she sees you with an enthusiastic "Hello!!" followed by an excited 'freak out' moment because she wants so desperately to hold you and squeeze you.
You love to sleep on your tummy and snuggle up to Mommy.
You caught a little baby cold over the holidays, poor thing. With all three of your immediate family members sick, you didn't have much chance of avoiding it.
I am so excited to see the girl and woman you blossom into; I loved hearing that beautiful Father's blessing Jon gave you yesterday!
We love you so very much, Lady Violet Aurora. Thank you for being a part of our forever family.
Love, Mom
