Thirteen years ago today, our sweet Abby was born. I know this sounds cliche, but time has gone by SO fast. It's like I just blinked and now I have this beautiful young lady right in front of me. Sometimes I wish I could make her a baby again and hold her in my arms and smell that sweet baby smell. She had the chubbiest cheeks! I used to tell her she had walnuts in her cheeks!
She was so sweet! When she was born and I saw and held her for the first time, it was love at first sight. I was so overwhelmed with this new love that I had never experienced before. There really is no way way to put words to this. There is nothing I wouldn't do for her!
I will never forget her sweet smile. Her eyes would squint almost closed. Her hands and feet were so chubby that I used to nibble on them and she would laugh so hard!
She grew and grew until she was a toddler! She had the curliest hair! 
She grew and grew until she was 3 years old. Her curls disappeared! Where is my baby?
She grew and grew until she was in kindergarten! Her first day of school.
She grew and grew until she was in middle school. Seventh grade! Really, when did this happen?
She grew one more year older. 13 years old! If you look really close you can still see that squinty eye smile.
She is such a blessing! She is a dream come true!
We are so proud of you!
Happy Birthday!! :)
