HAPPY BIRTHDAY






In so many ways, the birth of TP a year ago was the start of a lot of new things for our family. What a blessing she is - a bright, shiny ray of sunshine. I have really enjoyed this day. One day where I allowed myself to make it all about her and not feel guilty. Having 2 children (or more) seems to turn most every day into a tug of war between competing interests, opportunities and activities. So nice to just enjoy her for the delicious little peach she is. As a side note - the LG took it like a champ. He even wrapped (unwrapped) and re-wrapped the gift he selected for her.

She wasn't quite sure what to do with the cupcake, so of course the most reasonable solution was to peck at it like a little chick. She would go down, get some frosting on her lips, and come back up to lick her lips and think about whether she liked it or not. Such a princess. We love her. We love how she just loves to be loved. She makes everyone around her happy. We're happy, and we are so glad that she's ours.

I can't believe she's one. Happy birthday Tiny Princess!!!
