When I think back to when I was younger, all I ever wanted to do was have a daughter. A beautiful princess who would let me braid her hair and teach her about make-up. I told everyone I was gonna get pregnant on my honeymoon and I did. There was no doubt in my mind once I found out I was pregnant that she was going to be the little girl I always dreamed about and on April 19, 1997 I met her and she was just as I had imagined her (except I couldn't braid her hair yet lol).
Last week she turned 12 and I don't know where all the years have gone. Here is a small look at my little girl through the years.
We have basically quit having birthday parities because it is just too expensive with 4 kids, plus 3 of them have birthday's within a month. So, they get to pick where they would like to go for dinner as a family. This year my daughter asked if we could see Hannah Montana the Movie instead of dinner out and she choose to have meatball hoagies for dinner at home. So the 2 of us went to see the movie, we laughed, we cried and we had a great girl time together, alone, without all the boys in the family. I hope we can continue to do this for many more years before she becomes too busy for mom time.
Happy Birthday baby girl!
I love you,
Mom
