We babysat four of the little ones last night and as I watched this one child, in particular, I couldn't help but think back to the day she was born.
I had to miss this blessed event because I was recovering from heart surgery in another town. However, I do remember getting the call that my daughter was in labor and going to the hospital. It was bittersweet for me, especially since I didn't know how long it would be before I would get to see and hold her.
To be honest, I can remember feeling anger trying to creep in as I lay in that hospital bed, an hour away from all the activity. However, thanks to technology and my best friend, I was able to see this little sweetheart immediately after her birth via computers.
Now... well, now she is so full of energy, life, passion, cuddles and all things girly and wonderful. She has her own kind of amazingness and that's one thing (out of many) that I so love about her!
Happy 3rd Birthday, sweet little one. You don't know it, yet, but you were (and still are) such a bright spot in my life at a dark time and for that I'm even more thankful for your arrival into our lives.
I love you!
XO
