This time last year...

Last year...


And this year...

Sometimes a girl just wants to cry!


Happy Birthday Sweet baby girl. There is so much that I can't recall about this last year as a mother of two but I can remember so clearly holding my daughter for the first time. After a quick 2 hours of labor and a short 30 minutes at the hospital entered this world. My first words, "you look nothing like your brother" and how I have learned so much from that. She is NOTHING like her brother and EVERYTHING like herself. So calm, so content, so much personality, so much a gift that I could have never forseen nor asked for. What a true blessing that our God pours on us when we are blind to his grace or Plan far greater than our minds can fathom.
