Happy Birthday Sweet Baby!

Today Annabeth turns one. I can't begin to describe the joy she has brought to our lives this year. We had no idea what we were missing before she came into our lives. She is truly a delight. She is probably the happiest person I have ever met. She laughs easily and often. Her smile lights up a room. She is charming. She garners the biggest smiles from random strangers with her little antics. She makes me proud to be her mom.

She has an uncanny knowledge of her world. She was born with this odd talent for understanding what is happening around her. She loves to explore. She is highly determined and not easily distracted. Her new found love of walking is adorable. She finds it hilarious to go in the opposite direction from where you want her. She worships her sister. If Savannah is doing something it must be the coolest thing in the world, so Annabeth is determined to imitate her. While Savannah can find it frustrating at times, often she is a good sport. The sweeter Savannah is to Annabeth, the more Annabeth wants to be just like her.

Annabeth, thank you for a year of joy. I am so grateful to have you in our lives. Happy Birthday and we are looking forward to many more sweet years ahead.
