blank

Again - here I am filled yesterday w/ lots of great things to post on - and I sit now blank as a white wall w/ nothing to say! However I ALWAYS have something to say about my life now. Little girl is getting so big, and being rather silly and playing all kinds of games. She knows shes funny!

This past Saturday we had her party to celebrate her first birthday - it was a success, I think! Everyone who came had a good time, and little girl of course had a great time being the center of attention! One of the little girls that came - who is 3 - was too cute when it came time to open presents. She wanted to help little girl open them, and of course I said yes - other wise we would have been sitting there all afternoon! She was so helpful opening, and showing little girl how everything worked, and she kept saying 'she really likes this one!' Of course little girl had no intreats @ all in what her friend was doing, it was her friend that was interested in all little girls new things! It was so cute to watch though! And then there was cup cakes, and icing, and little girl loved all that - the icing I mean - she could have cared less about the cake part! 

There was a point when I took a step back and looked around @ all the people who came out to celebrate little girls life w/ us. All of who we've only known for 8mo! It doesn't feel like that short of time. I can remember when we met all of them for the first time - and each has a special story w/ me, and in my heart. I felt so blessed to know that we - as a family - mean a lot to them as well, for them to come out on a saturday - for some their only day off - and celebrate our little girls life! Good friends, good food, good times. We are blessed, and loved, and I know this is where we are suppose to be. I love it here, and I can attribute that feeling to those who have welcomed us, and support us and have befriended us.
