Hannah's 1st Birthday

Dear Hannah,

What a joyous, happy soul you are! Happy birthday to my sweet daughter!

At this point, you are no longer a baby and have decided to skip most of the baby stuff. You are an accomplished walker, with mad dancing and spinning skills! You are far advanced for your age! You say a few words, I think "ball" and "muah" 

while giving a kiss) are your favorites.

You are REALLY attached to mommy, but lately you've been hanging and cuddling with daddy a lot. I think you and daddy will have a special bond.


Your brother likes to make you laugh, he also likes to push you down, but that's another story:)  

 As I currently hold you in my arms while you sleep, I am reminded of this time last year. How I couldn't imagine loving another soul and wondering if there was room on my heart for another child. There is absolutely no doubt that you are loved and fill my heart with more joy than I thought possible. We had a rough start with you being a colicky baby, but all those hours of crying were more than worth it! You make us smile on a daily basis. We love you so much!!!
