So, it was one year ago today that our sweet Abbie was born. It has been the most amazing and wonderful experience of our lives. Parents always say that and I didn't get it until we had her. She is a daily joy and we praise the Lord for her everyday. We never realized how deeply we could love someone until she entered our lives.So, since she's been alive for 12 months, these are the 12 things we love about her.
1. There are times when we are holding her that she will turn our face to hers, gaze up at us, and lean in for a kiss.
2. She will put her head on our shoulder and just rest there. (This is new. Since the day she was born, she has held her head completely stiff.)
3. Her toothy grin.
4. When we get her up in the morning, she acts like it's the most exciting part of her day.
5. When she goes to bed, she will talk to herself in the bed and say "da, da, da" and "ma, ma, ma," like she's thinking about us before she goes to sleep.
6. We love how much books will entertain her. She prefers them to any toy.
7. Any kind of music makes her smile. Especially when she can play it herself.
8. Her infectious laugh, which she blesses us with all the time.
9. Her dimples.
10. Her beautiful red hair, and the personality that goes with it.
11. She imitates any noise we make and laughs about it.
12. She is ours and truly makes our lives worthwhile.
Happy Birthday, sweet one.
