My goodness, has it been twelve years already? Seems like it was just yesterday that I gave birth to my first precious daughter. You have grown so much. So strange to see you one day as a baby, and the next, you've turned into a little lady. It's so much fun to see you're individual personality come through. You have your own way of thinking, your own style. You're not like a lot of the kids in school in having to be 'like everyone else'. I know that makes it hard for you sometimes, but I'm so glad that you are just being YOU.
You are so funny and goofy, smart and sometimes more wise beyond your years then I would like. You're beautiful and charming all rolled into one. You're my Mini-Me, but not really like me at all. You're a leader, more outgoing, you know how to just do the things you want even when you're so afraid to fail. I wish I had those qualities when I was younger, it took me a long time to get them, and even now it's not always there. I'm glad that you're finding the confidence in yourself much sooner. I know that it will only get stronger and better. You will get everything you want out of life, and you will deserve every bit of it.
I love you, boo girl, more than you'll ever know. Happy Birthday, Mini-Me.
Love,
Mom xo
You can find the story of her birth here in a post from last year.
