Today, my baby is 9 years old. We've already had a few conversations of "What were you doing 9 years ago right now, Mommy?" I remember wanting to know those same things.
I'll never forget the day (Mother's Day, 1997) I found out you were on your way. I remember Uncle Brock playing "A Little Glimpse of Heaven", a song he wrote for me and you, that day. I listened to that song every day of my pregnancy. Daddy and I played it for you after everyone left that night and cried together, from joy and relief that you were here, safe and sound. We felt so blessed.
I feel so blessed to be her mom. She's such a good, kind, loving child. She's giving, respectful, a GREAT big sister, resourceful (thanks, Gret, for pointing that out!), and just an all around great kid!
Happy Birthday!

I'm so late in commenting -- Happy Birthday, Lauren! I love you, sweetie!
Brit, what else did you end up getting from American Girl for Lauren?
Hey Brittany
I have really enjoyed looking at all the pictures. Your children are just beautiful. I laughed about your 4 ft. christmas tree because this year in our house with two 22 month old girls it was challenging at times. They wanted to touch the tree all the time to tell you about each ornament or picture on it.
We continue to pray for your family.
love julie
