I'm working on winding down from a long night at work right now. And I guess ny 4 year old has no concept of time yet because it's 3:34 a.m. and she is up and playing like it's daytime. But I secretly enjoy times like these because she's growing up and changing so fast. Every day I notice little things that show me how she's growing up. This is our time to have together without anyone else interrupting, even if it is before the butt crack of dawn. We talk about things and laugh together. I don't have to be Supermom or anything else, we're just mommy and Sarah loving each other and loving being together. As she grows I can't help but look back on the past 4 years and wonder where they have gone? I still remember the first time I ever saw her. It was my 24th birthday and I started bleeding at work so we rushed to the E.R. Up to that point, I had never been so scared in all my life. I was trying to stay positive that my sweet little baby was going to be ok. This picture was the best birthday present I will ever receive in my whole life
Sarah decided that March 2, 2005 was the day she would join our family. It was a little ahead of her due date, which was March 13th. Grandma was hoping she would come on the 12th and they could share a birthday. But as we all know now, Sarah does things her own way! I'm just thankful that I had a quick labor!! Only 4 hours! (Sarah's little brother was even faster, only 90 minutes!) And just like that, we became a family of 3. I have enjoyed every single second that this beautiful little girl has been a part of my life. I can't wait to see what the future holds for us together. I love you, Sarah Renee!
First birthday!
Look at her now!
