On Saturday I was very careful to say 'Peach, this is only your party. Your birthday is Wednesday.' I really thought it was sinking in... Until yesterday morning when I said "Who's REAL birthday is it tomorrow?" She got a HUGE smile on her face, threw her arms up in the air and said "CAYMEN!!!!"
Today, my love, is your birthday. You bring my life such joy. From your big, sparkling eyes to your perfect lisp. I love all of you. You fought back from being septic when you were only 2 months old - a fight that scared us to death.
You make our house complete - even with the drama that oozes out of your body. There are days when I worry what my life will be like in 10 years, but for now - you are simply the best.
We love you so, so much. I'm so glad that God chose me to be your Mom. Today we celebrate the day you were born 4 years ago. We give you gifts to show our love. However, today I celebrate the perfect gift that was given to me - 4 years ago today. We love you..jpg)

Happy Birthday Princess Peach.

Happy Birthday Claire!!!
She is the sweetest little peachy pie in the whole world!
I remember each one of my girls turning four, it's a priceless age. Enjoy it!
If it helps you out any, the teenage years were the absolute best at our house. It's the time we really became friends and life was very sweet. Don't be afraid, just keep those lines of love and communication open.
I pray for Claire to always feel blessed to know how much her mom loves her and for you to always see the blessing in having her as your daughter.
Happy Birthday to a precious little girl named Claire!!
