Happy Birthday Princess!

You are a whole 3 years old today! That just blows me away. And I was even there three years ago when we all met you. When you were born, I had the most difficult time delivering you. You just didn't seem to want to co-operate. In fact one nurse said "Boy her head keeps coming out a little and then goes back in." (If someone wasn't holding my foot at the time, I might have kicked her gently moved her out of the way! Not what you want to here right at that moment.) I thought for sure you must be huge with a huge ole head. But nope, you came out about the same size as your big sister was.

Ever since then, you surprise me daily with your personality. I'm shocked at how much of your dramatic personality I can already see. I had no idea that a three year old could do so many expressions using JUST her eyes! You have the gift of encouragement. We can be walking around in just our comfy scrubs and you'll say "Daddy, I like your shirt!" or "Mommy, I like your pants!" And without any prompting you would cheer your sister on at her soccer games. You still love for me to hold you and rock you in the chair, and I'll truly be sad when you no longer ask me for that. You have a huge sweet tooth. Chocolate is your favorite food group. And you don't believe you could ever have enough purses or shoes!

Our world is infinitely more brighter with your shining face in it. I love you more than words could express! You are a piece of my heart. Happy Birthday to my Princess!

Happy Birthday Posh! And, I can see how she talks with her eyes - those eyes are going to get her EVERYTHING in life :)

I think three is the best age! Have fun little princesss, speaking from a mommy who's 3 yr old is in a Barbie princess dress wearing a Sleeping Beauty crown and watching TV holding a magic wand! (Since 7:30 this am)!

Three is an awesome age, what a big girl! Happy Birthday Posh!

Happy, happy birthday. Great choice for your birthday outfit-every Princess should have the gear to go along with the title. Have fun, Sweet Pea!

Happy birthday to the lovely Princess!

Memorizing the moment of our baby's birth is so wonderful. I always take a moment to do so.

Your writing really inspired me to post about it. I've just linked you up in my blog. If that's ok with you.

Shalee said...

Oh, happy birthday! That is a beautiful picture of her! May you have a kazillion more wonderful memories about her (but not the birth one... I think you need a good glass of wine after remembering that one!)

Heather said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Addie said...

Thanks y'all for the birthday wishes! She had a fantastic birthday that left our house strewn with new toys, paper wrappings and gift bags and filled our bellies full of chocolate cake!

Brenda said...

Happy Birthday yesterday, pretty pretty princess! Love that expression!

Seti said...

I laughed when I saw the picture and cried at your message to her. What a wonderful gift she is to our family and what a wonderfully thoughtful mommy she has to put it in writing! She will lack for nothing in her life she has all the love she needs! Is there a better gift than that?
Hope it was a happy one--
Happy Birthday Miss (Posh) Carys!
