HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY CHARLOTTE MAE!!!!

Dear Charlotte Mae,

Today you complete your first trip around the sun. One year ago today we were blessed for the second time all in one year. You came into this world with the same determination we now wittness as you walk. The day you were born also brought a great deal of unknowns. Who knew a baby could spit up that much, and seem to sleep so little. Day by day, week by week, month by month we have all gotten adjusted and now Daddy and I look at you and your sister and wonder what we ever did without you.

This was a year of first's for you.

First Smile

First Laugh

First tooth First crawl

And that set of first stumbled yet beautiful steps.

Charlotte you have taught Daddy and I so much. You taught us that we could indeed love another child as unyielding as we love your big sister. That everyday is a gift, baby kisses are the sweetest in the world, and that true happiness can be found in a full tummy and Mommy's arms. Today as we celebrate your birthday it will be a reminder that nothing should be taken for granted. You will never remember this first year, but Daddy and I will never forget it.

Thank you for being our Daughter. You and your sister have made our cups runnth over. We love you as high as the sky and as deep as the ocean, it will never end.

Happy 1st Birthday Sweet Rdette Mae! :-)

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
