my jelly bean

oh how she has changed!!!! first she was soooooo little and now she is such a big girl! where has the time gone!
when she was born, literally to the sound of music i was thrilled and terrified and in awe that something so beautiful and wonderful could happen. i had all these hopes and dreams, i saw her riding a bike, going on her first real date, getting married, going to college, having her kids, and in that breif momement i knew it was all going to be ok. then they whisked her quickly away to the NICU and i was worried, scared and sad all at the same time. would she be ok? would she have any 'side affects' would she be able to keep and lead a normal life? and as i watch my new daddy follow his newest love i felt and then knew that she would be wonderful and no matter what she would be ok and i would love her. and i do, and she is.
she is spunky, caring, smart, sassy, loving, and everything i could have wanted and then some.
i thank my Father in Heaven everyday for her, and i hope that i can show her how much she means to me. and that when she grows up, she will want to show her kids how much they are loved, like she felt she is.
i love you jelly bean!

Happy Birthday angel!
