Anya's Second Birthday



It is hard to imagine that two years have passed since this beautiful one entered our lives. She is a spitfire, wonderful, sweet, smart, demading, stubborn, humorous, baby girl. She loves singing, dancing, reading, snuggling. My favorite times are early in the morning when she wakes up and calls for me in her sweet little voice and when I go to pick her up she says, "I oldju" and snuggles down into my chest like she did when she was a tiny baby. For the first several months she was always freezing and couldn't sleep unless she was laying on top of me. My mom gave me a hard time the first couple of weeks after Anya was born because all of a sudden I would burst into tears. Even now I tear up just thinking about it. I was just so grateful, still am, that she was here, and healthy and beautiful. I sometimes find myself hurrying through life and taking time away from my girls doing things I think I should do instead of just enjoying them. I constantly repent of that because I am and will always be so grateful to be a mom and to be a mom of my two beautiful girls. And with that I am going to go watch a movie with my babies. I will have to tell you about Danna thinking Anya is crazy later. Remind me. . . it is that good.
