Hooray!!! Today is your birthday. You are now 1 year old. I remember when you looked like this. So small. So cute. So brand spankin' new.
I think back to that day when you were born and so much of it was a blur. I remember when my water broke the night before, I just looked at your daddy with a huge smile on my face and said "It's go time." We were so ready for you. My body had been waiting 9 long months, but my heart had been waiting forever. I get teary-eyed writing this because I remember how badly I wanted to meet you, my very own little girl. I could not wait to see what you looked like, smelled like, sounded like.
And when they put you in my arms, the world stopped. Everything and everyone around me became a blur. I only had eyes for you. We just stared at one another, soaking in the moment, knowing that we belonged to one another. I never believed in God more than I did in that one moment.
And now, 1 whole year later. My chubby girl of delicious energy who rolls her Rs, has the most wonderful silky curls, is constantly laughing, and has the most breathtakingly beautiful eyes I have ever seen... How did I get so lucky?
We made it, kid. We made it 1 whole year. And not only did we make it, we had one awesome time of it. We have had some great adventures in this past year and I can not wait to see what fun we will have next.
So cheers to you, Little B. Happy Birthday!
