thinking about today has put a big lump in my throat for months, her first birthday. how can she be ONE?! it seems like it was just yesterday that we held her in our arms for the first time, what a precious day it was, it is by far up there with some of the sweetest moments of my life. on the eve of her first birthday vance and i stayed up till 1 am looking at pictures of her & the kids throughout the past year. wow, we have three kids and wow, we have a little girl...a year later we're still surprised!
logan gracie...
you fit into our family so well.
it's like you were meant to be here.
and you were!
God knew what he was doing when he gave us you.
you are a peanut.
weighing in at a whole 17lbs.
you're a beauty.
people are always commenting on your red hair and blue eyes.
of course, your smile just adds to your beauty.
we pray God always uses your beautiful smile to bring joy & warmth to those around you.
at 12 months you walk quite a bit but still crawl lots.
at 12 months you have 4 teeth & two more trying to pop through. (hence your tongue always feeling your top teeth.)
and at 12 months you still take 2 naps and struggle to sleep at night. (sigh.)
you love your brothers and recently discovered daddy is more than alright, he gets the best smiles from you.
you are one.
my oh my.
love you sweetie pie.
bless her little self, she's never had sugar. she loved it...and then threw it all up, looovely.
and oh yeah, can you tell she's the THIRD child. she got a sugar cookie on her birthday, a CHRISTMAS sugar cookie. in my defense, she will have a "party" with a cupcake in a few days...
we even got to FaceTime with the ferry-side of the family and sing happy birthday all together. yes, there were tears by me:)
