Happy 1st Birthday Sophie

Dear Sophie,
It it so hard to believe a whole year has gone by since the first time we held you in our arms. I remember that morning and all the events that took place.  I went into labor at midnight and managed to stay at home until about 6 am.  We got to the hospital at 6:30 am, about an hour later I was having an epidural and at 12:46 pm your daddy and I watched as you came into this world.  As they handed you to me I had all sorts of different emotions, the strongest were happiness and love.  Both of us had tears of joy as I held you, you nestle into my chest and you wrapped your little hand around my fingers.  Daddy and I remember the day and the events as if you were just born yesterday.  Now here we are today looking at you and you are now walking, still a little wobbly.  You are eating table food, and jibber jabbering up a storm and we think to ourselves where does time go.  In the past year we have watched in awe as you have learned new things, and grown into a girl with your very own little personality.  We just want you to know you are our world.  We love you with our whole hearts and you bring us such joy and happiness.

Mommy and Daddy
