My oldest is SEVEN today. Seven.
Which means that seven years ago today our lives were changed for good.
In the best.possible.way.
See, it happened to be our one-year wedding anniversary when we learned she was on the way.
Incidentally, the best anniversary EVER. Hands-down.
My first-born was a great, undeserved, profound gift from God.
She has been a delight from day one.
She taught me how to be a mom. (I was only 22 when she was born!)
She laughs really hard and gives fantastic hugs.
She is a fabulous older sister with a great capacity for compassion.
She loves Jesus and wants to follow Him.
Anna Elisabeth is a joy.
And a total goofball. In case you didn't know. :)
So, a Happy Birthday to my beautiful seven year old, Anna Beth! I love you, sweet girl!
