Scarlett turning one...

Scarlett will be one on Monday. I have such mixed feelings about her first birthday. I am excited for her, and I love to watch her grow... but I cant help feeling like time is flying by and I am starting to forget what it felt like to hold my first born when she was just a baby blob (as we lovingly referred to her as). She is learning so many new things, like crawling and walking and waving as the toilet flushes and singing, dancing, and talking like she is having a conversation with you. I love watching her grow and I love all the things we will get to do together as she does.... but this last year has been amazing, and I love this child with every part of my soul.

Lord, please remind me to slow down, to enjoy each day with all of my many blessings, and to soak up my ever growing (almost) one year old.
