six years ago you were placed in my arms. all 4lbs15oz of you, tiny and perfect. a culmination of love.
six years ago, it seems like we have lived a lifetime together in those six years. four houses, two states, three schools, three siblings, two dads. it's been a ride.
but i want to tell you about what i am thankful for addy, because most of all- i am thankful for you. you, who being the spitting image of me is constantly causing me to grow.
you whose heart is sensitive and caring.
you whose aptitude for language and reading is beyond her years.
you whose joy and infectious laugh brings a light to every day.
you whose generous spirit does its best to make everyone feel included.
you whose unique sense of identity shines through in her ever changing hairstyles.
you whose developing determination is proving how well you can stick with something.
i love you.
i promise to do my best.
happy happy birthday sweet girl!!!
i love you,
mommy
