Happy birthday to our sweet 6 years old girl. We have been truly blessed to have the 5 wonderful children that we do. They are all miracles. And while I don't feel that I've ever taken them for granted, I think I've appreciated each and every one of them just a little bit more over that last few days. I put my girls to bed most nights (Ross & I are supposed to switch off every other day but Lily & Stella have been Mama's girls lately)I love reading them a book and snuggling with them for a few minutes before I tuck them in (I actually just tuck Lily in because Stella says she likes to be cold and won't let me put a blanket on her, silly girl)and go about my evening of cleaning or editing or laundry. Those few quiet moments I get to spend with them at night are some of the best moments of my day and I hope I never forgot the little conversations we have. Last night I told Lily all about the day she was born and the memories I have from that wonderful day. Her little face lit up as I told her about how I felt the first time she looked up at me with those big beautiful eyes. She is so sweet. She is so trusting. She is so kind. She is so caring. She is so perfect. I love that little 6 year old daughter of mine more that I could ever put into words. My heart aches at the thought of anyone ever hurting her. I wish we could raise her in a better world. And this was as good as it got 6 years ago with my little sony cyber shot. But I still love it because it's of me and my sweet baby girl. And one of Miss Lily at 18 months old. XOXOXOXO
