sweet caroline

Happy birthday to my girl, Caroline.
She is 2 years old today,
and that just doesn't even seem possible!!

It feels like just yesterday I was anxiously awaiting the phone call telling me that she was here. And now 2 whole years have gone by... man, time does fly!

I want Jamie to know, on this special day, just how much I admire the mommy you are to this precious baby girl. You are a beautiful, loving woman and your passion for life has been passed on to your daughter in so many ways. I watch her, and I can see you in her. I can only hope that she grows into a woman like you, Jamie. Because I know that you are seeking to live your life each day for the One Who created this darling little girl.

I feel so blessed to have both of you in my life. When I think of "family friends" I automatically think of my nanny and her sweet friend Betty Hunter. They had babies together and walked through each stage of life together, and I always prayed that I would have that. I never guessed what a special, beautiful friend I would be given. Thank you, Jamie for teaching me so much about being a mommy. I love you guys!

And now I'm bawling like a baby. I've done pretty good so far this morning but after reading this, I'm done! Thank you for your sweet words, friend. They mean so much. You and your sweet family mean so much to me. I love that our kiddos are growing to be best friends, just like us. Love you!!!
