Happy Birthday Everly Lily!


September 20, 2011

Dear Everly,

Happy Birthday Baby Girl! One week ago today, at 10:21 p.m., you came into this world and changed my life forever. For months your Daddy and I dreamed about meeting you. I know we are biased but we think you are the most beautiful baby we have ever seen. You have the most perfect, round face with piercing eyes that appear almost silver in color. You have a little button nose, chubby cheeks that I want to squeeze all the time, and pouty lips that make my heart melt every time I look at you. You have a head full of brown hair with golden highlights that most people have to visit the hair salon to achieve. Your sun kissed olive skin is silky and smooth and I could spend every second of the day giving you kisses and smelling your sweet baby scent.

Everly, you entered this world with such a sweet soul and a strong presence. Every time I hold you I feel so calm and relaxed. I also get a kick out of how demanding you can be when you want something (not sure where you got that from). The nurses at the hospital referred to you as the CEO of the nursery because they said you did not have any problem voicing your opinion and letting them know how you felt about diaper changes, feedings, and medical procedures that had to be performed. For a newborn you definitely have spunk!

Every time I look at you I get emotional. Words cannot describe how happy you have made your Daddy and me. Without a doubt, you are the best thing that has ever happened to us. I cannot wait to walk beside you in this journey of life and support you as you develop into the strong, confident, and beautiful woman that I know you will become.

I love you more than anything in this world!

Love,
Mama
