Our sweetest little blessing from the Lord,
It was such a blessing to finally hold you in our arms after a long and eventful pregnancy! You came 4 weeks early but came as healthy as a bigger baby! You were smaller than Gracie's Bitty Baby which is pretty tiny! In fact, you looked like a baby doll so we were frequently startled when we saw Grace's dolls on the floor, thinking you had fallen on to the ground! Everyone loved you from the start. You had such a sweet and snuggly dispostion from the start; slept well, nursed well and loved to be snuggled but were ok to be propped on the sofa for a few minutes while I took care of your big sister also. We loved taking you on a camping trip when you were just 10 days old! Our friends the Kings let us use their trailer for the trip so Mama, who was recovering from a C-Section wouldn't have to sleep in a tent. That sure was nice! When you were 14 months old we moved to Belize, Central America. You didn't seem to mind the heat and got sick less frequently than the rest of us. The bugs liked you especially however! You seemed to always be covered with bug bites. Now you are 2 years old, I can hardly belive it.. you *still* ask to be nursed though so you must not be THAT big, right? You are such a special blessing in our lives dear sweet blonde hair, blue- eyed sweetheart. You have us all wrapped around your finger.. we pray that you will grow up to be a mighty woman in Jesus' Kingdom. We love you so much little one. You bring so much joy to our family Laura. Happy 2nd birthday darling.
