How is it even possible this day is already here!?
Seems like just yesterday I was waking in the middle of the night with pains 12 weeks early.
Terrified and nowhere near prepared to be a mom, ready or not you arrived. You were absolutely perfect so tiny and purposed to change the lives of those around you.
Your life has not been easy. In just 18 short years you ve survived a near-drowning, the death of a sister, an aunt, your Gigi, Pepaw, Papaw Ray, parents divorcing, moving schools several times, and a roller coaster of other situations.
And you handled it all with a maturity far beyond your age. You are loyal to a fault. You love others so deeply and in the most special way. It reminds me of my own mother and her heart. Never lose that.
