Three months ago, today, we celebrated Little Miss turning two.
I still sometimes can’t believe she is two. Although she reminds me frequently, in her own way, that she isn’t as little as I see her in my head.
I tried to make the day as much about her as I can.
We visited the Children’s Museum in Napa. Where we had a picnic and then played and played.
We made it home in time to play some more with SuSu and Papa. Have cupcakes and presents. And a whole lot more pictures.
I’m sure there is a good reason for only giving her half a cupcake on her birthday. Although now, three months later, I have no idea what that good reason was.
There is so much we love about Little Missy. Her laugh, her smile, her very-distinct-all-her-own personality. She brings so much to our family and I’m so glad I have her.
Her birthday represents so much to me. Such a trial her and I went through two years (and three months) ago. I so much want her birthday to be more about her and less about my struggles.
I was asked just the other day if I would have done things differently knowing the outcome. Had I not been induced and gone into labor on my own there is no way of knowing how things would be different. I could have gone into labor in the middle of the night and had a different doctor who responded differently and could have lost my life. I wouldn’t be here to see her cute face. There could be any number of outcomes. All I know is, what I have come to learn in the past two years (and three months), that everything happens for a reason.
Happy Birthday three months ago Little Girl!
Be happy
