AND THEN SHE TURNED 1

When you have kids the time goes so fast.  I mean, when your in the middle of sleepless nights, nursing a newborn and potty training a toddler, it seems like one minute is a life time.  But the weeks and months just fly by.

My baby girl is 1.  A whole year old.  And she is sweet, kind, funny, happy, adventurous.  She possesses many qualities we didn't see in her brother.  Both my children are brilliant and bright, just in different ways. 

This year we have watched Noa grow into the princess her dad knew she was from day 1.  And now she knows it.  She is spoiled, but not rotten. 

For you, my sweet Genoa, I wish you happiness, and light at every turn.  I also thank you for the brightness you wake with every day (even at 3 am).  I hope for you to always love, and be loved.  It won't be hard.  I look forward to watching your growth and new joys springing to life every day. 

To both my kids: Please always love each other.  Even on bad days, just love each other.  Be each others best friend.  Be their rock and sounding board.  Play, experience, and create mischief.
