My sweet Livi...

We celebrated Olivia's 4th birthday last Saturday. I can't believe how time has flown by. She has the cutest giggles and the biggest smile. She loves to be the center of attention.

My sweet Olivia,

Thank you for always reminding me of the fun in life. For doing all sorts of weird things for reasons that are only apparent to you, but entertaining and joyful for us...

I love that you are such a perfect sister, bugging your sisters to the point of supreme irritation, yet always thinking they are the best thing since sliced bread. That's exactly your job as a sister, and you do it perfectly...

I am so proud to be your mom, Olivia. I will always stand by your side. I hope I can encourage you to be the best person you can be and to always follow your heart. I hope we can always be best friends and that you will never hesitate to come to me for anything.

Thank you for bringing so much joy to our life and of course love beyond measure. I feel blessed daily that you call me Mom. Happy Birthday sweetie, we love you...
