Birthday girl!


Well, today is Ellie's 2nd birthday. We'll be having a party with some friends tomorrow. I don't think that Ellie really understands how this day is any different from yesterday or tomorrow! But, it is special to me! It's hard to believe that two years have gone by since our precious little one stole our hearts (even before she was born). I remember during my pregnancy Michael would get out his guitar and sing to her. She would always move and kick a little more when daddy sang to her :-).
On the day of her birth, Michael and I both cried as we heard her first scream as she emerged from the womb. She has been such a joy in our lives. Her sweet voice and laugh keep us smiling. What a blessing from God to have her! It's a continual adventure, figuring out how to be good parents to this little girl, reflecting God's love to her. What a privilege (and responsibility) parenting is!
