happy birthday to you. happy birthday to you. happy birthday dear akaiyaaaaaa... happy birthday to you.
my monster turns 7 today. many thoughts run through my head when i sit down and really think of what an accomplishment this is for her. the first is, of course, "how can i be old enough to have a 7 year old?!?!?" hahaha...
but really, time does fly by when you're having fun. and we love to have fun.
happy birthday to my itty bitty. thank you for your patience while i try to figure this whole T18 thing out. thank you for being the one that can always make me smile, no matter what. thank you for those face splitting grins morning, noon and night. thank you for the giggles that are like music to my ears. thank you for being an inspiration to me, and to so many others. thank you for your strength and your perseverance in spite of a diagnosis that just plain sucks. thank you for giving me the knowledge, impetus and courage to pursue a career that i love. thank you for teaching me, our family, and our friends that communication goes so much deeper than the words that come out of your mouth. you've accomplished more in your 7 years here than many people do in their lifetimes, and i'm sure you'll continue to do great things. life with you always brings something new - sometimes good, sometimes bad, but it's definitely an adventure that i never want to end.
your mommy loves you so much. you really are a miracle.
happy birthday baby...happy birthday.
