I was in the greatest pain of my entire life. I was trying to breathe - taking warm showers, sitting in varying positions, holding on for dear life.
Just when I thought I couldn't go on - wonder of wonders - a little life emerged.
She was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen in my life. Her rose-petal lips, her button nose, her deep blue eyes, and her soft flawless skin amazed me. At one glance, I knew I would do it all over again for her.
It is, perhaps, one of the world's greatest ironies that such great pain can bring such great and incomparable joy.
I am forever changed by her presence. She has brought new and glorious colors into my life and I will never be the same.
Happy Birthday, little one!

Happy Birthday!!
I can't believe that she is already one year old. Isn't it amazing how fast time goes. Keep up the good work on being such a good mommy. Give her happy birthday hugs from us!
Congratulations! Glad you got lots of clothes and books. Books make great gifts.
It's one of the most amazing experiences in life!!! And I've gone through it six times! I thank God for each one!!
