My sweetest Avary Maree,

Three years ago at this moment, I was making sure I had everything for your planned c-section in the morning. I had to be there at 6am for check-in and then you would be coming around 8am. I couldn’t wait to see your little face. Bags were packed and I tried to get some rest, the best I could Kissed sissy goodnight and told her when I saw her again that she would be a big sister. Oh how her face lit up!! She loved you before she met you Av. Always kissing my belly and talking to her sweet lil sister.

Holding daddy’s hand waiting for them to wheel me back into the delivery room. The nurses told your dad they would come get him in 10 minutes and off I went down the hall. As the nurses were prepping mommy, a song came over the radio…. “Hey Soul Sister” by Train. The one lyric fits you so well :: “You see, I can be myself now finally In fact there’s nothing I can’t be I want the world to see you’ll be with me.” I am PROUD  and HONORED to be your mom <3

You complete me when I look at you. You are a mixture of feisty and compassion. Dancing is your thing and boy, do you have some killer moves There is never a boring moment with you. The laughter you bring into this house is priceless.  You have your daddy’s personality and your momma’s heart. We all call you “mini me” because you are MY MINI ME! I love you with every bit of me my sweet little girl. When you hold my hand down the stairs and give me sweet kisses for no special reason at all… it is those simple little things that make me so thankful to God for bringing your into my life. I LOVE being your mommy and want to say Thank you Avary Maree for making my life so much brighter <3

Happy 3rd Birthday mini me
