Four years ago -- after two very emotional years spent ttc -- Jeff and I were blessed with a tiny but nonetheless amazing miracle who has blessed our lives in more ways than I could ever begin to count. And this past Monday, she celebrated her ~FOURTH~ birthday!!!
The night before the big day I decorated the dining room and blew up over 2 dozen balloons to sneak into her room while she was sleeping. She awoke that morning to a room full of balloons and her reaction was priceless. So worth it!!! :) After letting daddy sleep in for an extra hour, we decided to wake him up and Jessica insisted on bringing a few of her presents to open in our bed. We had a few errands to run that morning involving the upcoming transfer, and then we picked up her Strawberry Shortcake cupcakes at one of the local bakeries and McDonalds for lunch. The afternoon consisted of opening the rest of her presents, eating more cupcakes, making a trip to the park, and cooking homemade lasagna and garlic bread for dinner....per Jessica's request! What a great day!!!
I still can't believe she's four....FOUR!!! She's getting so big and growing up waaaaay too fast for my liking. But it has truly been a gift to watch her grow and change from that tiny, precious 6lb bundle of joy into this bright-eyed, energetic, intelligent, and hilarious child with opinions and attitude all her own. Jeff and I are beyond blessed!!!
