Today is my baby's birthday! She's 2 years old, and I just can't believe it. Where have 2 whole years gone?
Julie-Ann has been the perfect addition to our lives. She is so much fun every single day. We have our battles, but 99% of the time, she brings a smile to my face.
Just this week, she was pretend talking on the phone, and I asked her who she was talking to. She held up one finger, and with a very serious, motherly look on her face, said, "Just a minute, Mommy, OK? Thank you."
She woke up this morning and almost immediately said, "I want my present, my cycle!" We have been telling her she would get her tricycle today, and she was ready.
The last birthday party we went to was Connor's, and she must have loved it b/c today every time I mention that it's her birthday, she says something about it being Connor's birthday! Maybe she'll get it on Saturday at her own party.
Thank you to everyone who prayed for us 2 years ago when Julie-Ann was born and things were a little shaky with the adoption. I am so grateful to God for what He has given us. It is impossible to understand how full your heart can be of love for someone until a child takes up that space.
Have a great day, everyone!
