Dear Mallary,

I have come to the conclusion that one reason you are here on earth is to brighten people's days at the grocery store. Really. You basically stop traffic (uh... grocery carts) at the grocery store. People can't help but smile at you as they pass, or even stop to talk to you. Especially on days when you walk around putting stickers all over yourself, and covering your face with them. Though, there was one lady last week, I didn't think you were going to be able to crack. We kept passing her, and I thought she must be a really unhappy person, or having a terribly horrible day, but that last time we walked by her, she couldn't help but crack a smile. Granted, it was a very tiny crack, but a crack none the less.

There are those people that may find you annoying when they have to slow down so they don't run you over, but they are usually far and few between. I think that people can't help but find you adorable when you ask them, "What's your name?" "What you doing?" I think you're adorable too. It makes up for when you are a stinker. Although your stinkerness is becoming farther and fewer between. (I'm sure that's a phrase...) I think you made some lady's day at the grocery store this morning. She couldn't stop smiling. She even called you pretty, despite your pajama clad body and messy hair. You are pretty. And pretty crazy.

Love you,
Mom
