Three years ago today I saw your beautiful face for the first time. I was instantly in love. The one feature I noticed almost immediately was your eyes. Everyone says you always look surprised. You had a fussy start and gave us grief at first (oh how I hate reflux) but it was worth every hour of crying, every sleepless night, every spit up filled shirt I owned. You were mine and that was all that mattered.
You used to love when I sang "You are my Sunshine" or "You are so beautiful to me." You would fall asleep immediately. Even now if I break into one of those songs you start yawning and your eyes roll back in your head.
You got your love for candy & snacks from me unfortunately. I'll apologize now for any cavities you might have or for that extra 10 lbs you just can't shake later in life.
Your love for Disney Princesses can’t be matched. You dream daily of being a real princess and going to a royal ball. Your collection of princess dresses is enviable.
You are strong willed, loving, outgoing, shy, funny & smart. You are such a wonderful big sister to Cole. You are my friend, my love, my princess & my daughter. You are mine. I am honored God chose me to be your mommy.
You are so beautiful to me...
Thank you for giving me 3 of the best years of my life. Happy Birthday!
Love,
Mom
