She's 3

It's hard to explain my feelings about my baby turning three. We have experienced so much joy in these last 3 years. And have learned so much from this tiny person. December 12, 2007 marked the day that changed us forever. We will forever be grateful that God chose us to be Charlotte's parents. Each day with her is an adventure that I will always treasure.

I went to the hospital the other day to visit a friend who just had a baby. Walking through the halls and seeing the new families made me remember that was us not too long ago. Oh, how scared we were! I remembered being nervous to change her diaper. Nervous to bathe her. Nervous I was holding her incorrectly. Nervous I'd break her. 

She was so little. She seemed so fragile. 

But, like every new parent, I got over the nervousness and into a routine.

AND.... now she's 3!

We had to cancel our birthday plans to Borger and Daddy quickly put together a small party at home for the 3 of us.
