To my darling baby girl. You are my light and my sunshine. It is the eve of your seventh birthday and there is so much that I want to share with you. As I watch you sleep, your arm tucked around your little toy dog, you bring a smile to my face. My worries fade into the distance and it is just you. Thoughts of you and how far you have come. I watched the same little face asleep as I cradled you that day in the hospital. The day I fell instantly in love with you. The same little face that looked up with me with helpless eyes when i "knew" there was something.....something not right. The same little face that seemed to see through everyone elses' faces and be in the fantasy world of your own. Totally content within time. Totally happy in your own skin. The same little face that looks so intently at things we don't see. That laughs and questions and takes it all in your stride. The same little face that I gazed into the day they gave you "that" diagnosis. The same little face that makes my heart complete. That makes me want to be a better person. That makes me want to try more....for you and your sister and brother. The same little face that I KNOW will change the world we live in. To you, baby girl, happy 7th birthday eve.
May you dream big,
remain true,
and shine your light.
