As I'm sitting here tonight, thinking about Anna's first year ending, I'm a little teary. Wil wanted to watch her DVD made by my stepmom on the day she was born. It has tons of pictures at the hospital, set to music, and I was a crying mess watching it, thinking about how in the world that was a year ago. The expressions on her face that day are so similar to the expressions she makes now. She's grown up so fast, and changed so much. For some reason, her first birthday is harder on me than Wil's was, and I thought it would be the opposite.
We don't have big plans for her birthday tomorrow; we're going to my Mom's for her birthday dinner. I'll write her a letter tomorrow night, which I do for both kisa on their birthdays. I plan to give them the letters when they turn 18. Her party is this Sunday, with mainly family invited.
I still cannot believe I'm going to wake up in the morning and she'll be one. Happy Birthday to my beautiful daughter - you make our family complete, and I can't imagine how we could have lived without you.
