Today our crazy, funny, spirited girl turns one.

I know now that I had to wait all those years. When I didn't think I would find anyone that would love me enough to have a family. I had to wait because I was waiting for you.

I know now that I had to wait all those months that turned into years of negative tests. I had to wait because I was waiting for you.

I know now that I had to wait through the pain and the tears of the babies that were sadly not to be. I had to wait because I was waiting for you.

Eliza Victoria Margaret you made me a mommy and the wait was so so worth it!!

Happy Birthday darling girl!!
