I feel like it was just yesterday and Adam and I were being lectured by the hospital staff to name our new little girl. As I sat up throughout the following nights nursing and staring into my new little ones eyes I began to call her Addi. Adam agreed to the name and we officially named our sweet girl Addison Jlena. Today as she came down the stairs memories of her previous birthdays and special moments flooded my mind. You can see in the above photo that she lost another tooth. We were camping when she lost her tooth and then dropped it onto the forest floor now truly lost.
Addison took in Rice Krispy treats to share with her friends at school today. She was able to bring home her class Birthday Bag and read a few stories as well as writing in the class Birthday Journal. We had cake and the singing of Happy Birthday after family dinner. I think she enjoyed the day and the extra attention that it brought her way! Her party with her friends is on Saturday, but I just couldn't let today go by without wishing my sweet girl the happiest of birthdays. How quickly she has grown and what strength and overwhelming will she has within her to be the person she is today. I marvel at her strength and will power.
My Dearest Addison, What a wonderful young lady you are becoming. May your next year be full of new experiences that allow you to become the young woman that your Heavenly Father and your parents see in you. Always remember who you are A Daughter of Our Heavenly Father. He loves you as do your Mom and Dad. Never loose sight of your dreams and always listen to your heart. All my love, Mommy
