She is officially 2

I still vividly remember holding my precious Eden in my arms for the first time. I didn't realize then how time would go by so fast. She has been such a blessing to our family and we are grateful each day that God has allowed us to be her parents.



Her fun personality showed early on. She is such a joy to be around.




This was her 1 year-old-picture dress and believe it or not, it still fits. She is so petite.



Between then and now she has visited two other countries (Belize and Guatemala); increased her vocabulary to the point where she is now forming sentences; memorized the alphabet, colors and shapes (she even knows how to spell her name); used the potty several times; enjoyed being a big sister and the list goes on. I am so proud of her.



As a family tradition, on the actual birthday, we break out the 'You are special today' plate for breakfast, put a candle in a stack of pancakes, and sing 'Happy Birthday'.





She is our sweet princess and we look forward to seeing her grow up (hopefully not too fast). Thank you Lord for allowing us the privilege of being her parents. We love you, Eden Maeve.
