Welcome 2013

Posted By on January 1, 2013

Happy New Year, my dear Samantha.  It is now 2013, and this is the 5th year that you have lived in, despite your only three years of life.  It is amazing, isn’t it?  How much you have grown, how much you have experienced, how you have changed. It is so challenging, growing up, and you are doing such a great job. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect daughter. I would hope you couldn’t ask for a more perfect mommy, but I know sometimes you get frustrated with all of my rules and my telling you no. But I know you love me as much as I love you. You so often throw your arms around me and say in the most exuberant way, “I LOVE you, Mommy!” and you smother me with kisses all the time. Your smile when you see me lights up a room and I hope mine when I see you lights you up inside.

My wish for you this 2013 is more joy than your heart can hold, laughter so enormous that you can’t breathe from it, and a world full of such wonder that you can’t possibly describe it. Happy New Year, Sam. I can’t wait to see what we do together next.
