I can’t even express the joy you have brought me
My life and world are forever changed
Your dad and I are so in love and blessed to have you
Thank you for being the wonderful girl that you are and will
be in years to come
Happy 1st birthday sweet baby girl
Let me tell you about the special day that you joined our
lives:
At 3:30am on November 7 your dad and I got a call from the
Women’s Hospital saying they were ready for us. November 7th was your due date and
since you didn't come on your own, we needed to help you out. It was a very early morning for us and I was
very excited for you to come into the world, but I was also very scared because
I didn't know what kind of mother I was going to turn out to be. Your dad and I got up and gathered all our
things to head to the hospital. We were
very quiet on the drive to the hospital, and I remember your dad saying a
prayer for you and for a safe arrival into this world.
When we got there I was checked in and all prepped and ready
for the process of labor to start so we could meet you. At 8:00am the medicine to start the contractions was given and my water was broken. The process to meet you was well on its way! There was no stopping you from coming after
that. Grandma, Papa, Nana, and Aunt
MaryClaire were all in the waiting room waiting for you to come also. Everyone was excited to meet you.
Around 1:00pm it was getting a little painful, and when the
doctor checked to see if you were ready to come out, you were almost here! We were so excited. The doctors checked your progress again
around 3:00pm and it was time to push.
You were ready, Baby! You were such a good
girl, even from the beginning, you didn't hurt mommy much at all and were here
with only a few pushes!
At 3:44pm you came into this world! YOU WERE PERFECT!! So beautiful and alert….you were a amazing
gift from God!!
Your dad and I held you for an hour before we let any of the
family come and see you…we wanted to have that special time with you before
everyone else showered you with loves and kisses! You were and ARE such a blessing to me daily
and have changed my whole life since that day.
We had a few rough patches since the wonderful day that you joined us,
but I would never take one second back.
Thank you, sweet girl, for being the joy of my life. I cannot WAIT for many many more birthdays
that we can celebrate together!! This is
your perfect day….I love you more than words can describe.
Watching you grow over this year has been amazing!
Happy Birthday my sweet little bug!! XOXO
