then...
now.
my poppy louise,
today you are one year old. you are the sweet spot of our family. no one can resist your crooked grin and sparkling eyes.
you are beautiful. every time we are out someone will stop us to tell us that. you bring so much joy to our lives... the first time i held you i was in awe. you looked nothing like i expected. you were foreign and i felt like i didn't know how to be your mom. but with you i grew. i have such a special love for you my baby girl. you demand my attention.. and i adore that. never have you been left in the background.. you have always made sure we know you are here. never has a baby cried so loud, so quick. miss zero to sixty. but we don't mind.. because the minute you are scooped up, you shower us with cuddles and coos and smiles. oh, miss louise. you melt us all.
your sister loves you most. when i see you two together, i know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you were always meant to be together. who was i to ever question having you so close? you live to see your minie every day, and she lives to see you.
you are a mover and a shaker.. you want to be in the thick of it all. holding still for a diaper change is something we have yet to witness. you can squirm out of any situation. you hate wearing bows and are constantly tugging at your hair. you giggle when i wrestle to put them in, and drop them to floor with a grin. you little stinker :)
i love being your mom. i love the peace you bring to our family. the beauty, the noise, the completeness. 1 year ago today it all began. it was a blink of an eye, a quick moment, and you were here. how a year has come some quickly i can't fathom.. i want to slow it down, and gobble up every millisecond i have with you. i know my life will always be bright with you in it.
i love you to the moon. thank you for coming to me.
happy birthday my baby girl.
xoxo,
mama

she is truly one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen. These pictures are beautiful (she is getting so much hair!) and I am gaga over that hat. Please tell me that you didn't make it...or better yet tell me that you did and are planning to market a boys version.
Happy birthday pretty poppy!
