Well it's officially true what everyone tells you, "they grow up fast...time flies." I am stuck in a mixed state of emotion today. So happy it's my sweet little girls birthday, but sad it's happening so fast, and worried if I am teaching her enough as everything seems to be flying by. Day by day, her and I have settled into our sweet little routine of giggles and smiles in the morning, followed by naps, playdates and runs with the doggies. Our summer has been filled with trips to see friends, celebrating babies, births and birthdays. She is such an adaptable, easy going, and fun little child to take anywhere.

Kevin and I sat last night and looked at pictures of her throughout the year, especially the one's from the time she was born. Both of us, were silent with wide smiles and warm hearts. I cannot express enough, how complete we feel, it's like she has always been a part of us...

Life is so much better with you my dear little pumpkin girl. We are so proud to call you our daughter...

AH, I cannot stop crying! Happy Birthday sweetie. Oh how I LOVE YOU.
