6 years ago today...



It seems like just yesterday that they sent us home from the hospital with my sweet baby. I remember thinking they were crazy to trust me with the life of another human. The next six weeks after that were a bit of a blur. Anne had made her presence known in our lives. Here are a few things I love about Anne.
* I love her laugh...she has the cutest giggle.
* I love when she dances like no one is watching...all the time.
* I love her imagination.
* I love to hear her vibrato when she sings...she is really working on it.
* I love that she loves skirts.
* I love that like me she likes to sleep just a bit longer in the morning.
* I love to hear her read.
* I love her curls.
* I love to watch her playing with her brother.
* I love that she is sensitive to other's feelings.
* I love that when I sing her "Smile" every night she pretends to be asleep.
* I love that she is my girl.

Happy Birthday my sweet girl!

What a vivacious girl! I still remember when we visited you guys in MD. She would come down every morning and say "hi friend"! She is way too loveable.

Oh, the sad part is that I remember Anne most as she is in the top two pics - she has grown so much! Hopefully we'll be moved together again in the future. Happy Birthday Anne!
