Happy Birthday sweet child. I love you forever right now.

One minute.

One year.

Two years.

Three years.

Name: Rosario Gabrielle
Nickname: Goobie, Ari, and Goobalicious
Age: 3 years.
Birthplace: North Carolina
Heritage: German/Irish & Black/Mexican
Zodiac Sign: Libra
Shoe Size: 6 – Toddlers
Clothing Size: 2T
Rightie or Leftie: Right Handed
Innie or Outie: Innie.
Fears: Bugs.
Bedtime: 7pm

Favorite Song: “Yellow Submarine” – The Beatles
Favorite Movie: The Incredible Hulk/Help!
Favorite TV Show: Sesame Street,
Favorite Toy: Leapster 2, dollhouse
Favorite Place: Under my arm.
Favorite Person: Mommy – Comforter, disciplinarian, punching bag, play thing…
Favorite Saying: ‘I outta here!’ [usually after someone has upset her]
Favorite Book: Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs and Ham
Favorite Food: Tacos, sharp cheddar cheese, beef bacon, plums, strawberries, macaroni and cheese
Favorite Animal: Dogs. Large dogs. “Ruff ruff!”
Favorite Store: Target.
Salad Dressing: Ranch.
Toothpaste Flavor: Bubblegum.

Dislikes: Getting in trouble [stern voice, harsh glare, time out, anything similar], being told no, being comforted after she hurts herself, before requesting said comforting.
Likes: playing with her sister, petting the dogs, swinging, throwing rocks, sitting in her high chair, waking up at midnight and watching television shows on my computer with me, stealing swigs of my soda when I’m not paying attention.

I did this survey for her on my MySpace blog last year, and the year before that I wrote her birth story. Both are private entries, so if you’re interested you’ll have to friend me. Reading her birth story is the only way to understand the significance of this song [and the title of the post]:

I love that you wrote all of those little things down. Things you think you’ll never forget because they make up all of the parts of her day. But they get washed out with the next day’s things. Happy Birthday.
