For this child I prayed, and the LORD has granted me my petition which I asked of Him.
~1 samuel 1:27 from NKJV
Its so very hard for me to believe that Bella is a year old. I have a swarm of emotions going on today...excitement that she is a year old, sadness that its gone by way too fast (slow down, mama wants to hold you a little longer), thankfulness that we (she) hasn't had any major health or physical problems to date, blessed to have such a wonderful, beautiful baby girl, scared for her future in this hard world, but most of all I feel more love for her then the day she was born. Words could never be enough to describe the feelings you have for your child.
So HAPPY BIRTHDAY my sweet Bella, we love you more than words!!
