Well my baby girl turned 5. She is maybe the only person I know that can drive me to the verge of complete insanity but also make my heart just burst with love. Parenthood is a remarkable journey, and it ain't for sissies.
Happy happy birthday to my so smart, precocious, tenacious, joyous, adventurous, and beautiful baby girl. As the cliche goes, she will always be my baby. I pointed out a picture to Raegan in the hallway of me snuggling her as a newborn baby. I said, "See, you're my baby. Look how much I love you." She beamed with joy.
This morning, as she came down stairs and we sang her Happy Birthday, she smiled from ear to ear, and then asked, "Mom, do I look different now? Do I look 5?" I had to laugh out loud, and then assure her that yes, she does look different now.
My big girl! :)
