Maddy is Four!


It's hard to believe that four years ago, we were blessed with the beautiful girl that is Madelyn. She's the light of our lives, and is growing up so fast in some ways.

I loved every second of being pregnant (except the morning sickness, which didn't last too long for me). I had a text book pregnancy. Not a single complication or issue arose. Even birth, seemed easy. I went into the hospital around 9:00 pm and by 4:00 am the next morning, our baby girl was born.

We've had many challenges raising Maddy, but I would not change one single thing about her. (Well, maybe it'd be nice if I could get her to stop banging on my cabinet glass just so she can get a rise out of me.) While it would be nice to have answers on why Maddy's development is delayed, I try to live every every day with her in the moment. I especially plan on enjoying today as we celebrate with friends and family our funny, happy, goofy, beautiful little girl, who's not so little anymore.
