Today was Jaelyn's birthday and it was a such a great and fun day for us. We started it off by singing Happy Birthday to her. The poor girl is so confused due to us having her actual party last Saturday. She now thinks she has two birthdays a year or something!
We then started our day off by making her birthday cake together, then headed to Subway to pick up some lunch for us and headed to Duck pond once again. We ate lunch with her best friends Hannah and Tess and of course her daddy! Daddy joined us during his lunch to share her special day.
We ended Jaeyln's special day with a pizza dinner and we ordered "Alvin and The Chipmunks" for us to watch as a family. Of course there was cake involved and some singing too. Make sure you watch the video on the scrapbook. She is turning into such a character....
I remember so clearly four years ago today heading to the hospital and getting ready to have Jaelyn. I was prepared for a scheduled C-section the very next day, but Jaelyn had to make her appearance now! She was the cutest little baby girl born with tons of hair. I tried to soak in everything I could when she was born because I knew that she was going to be my last one. It was very bittersweet, but I don't regret my decision one bit. Jaelyn has been a blessing in my life just like my other children are too. I have learned through foster care though that they don't have to be born from your body to be born into your heart.
Thank you Jesus for my precious little baby girl that you have blessed us with and trusted us with. She is such a beautiful girl and has such a sweet spirit and love for you Lord and I am just the proudest mommy in the world. Please protect her in her journey in life and watch over her as she grows into a young woman. Thank you for all that you have done in my life and all that you are going to do.
In Jesus' name we pray...
Amen
