Happy Birthday Lillie!

It's Lillie's 1st birthday today!  This year has gone so fast and Lillie has changed so much.   The little 5 lb 8 oz baby that we met a year ago is now an energetic, smiling, fiercely curious 1 year old.  Lillie brings joy where ever we go.  It has been a year since Eric and I have been able to go out somewhere and not be stopped by someone commenting on what a lovely baby we have or having a stranger's face brighten up because Lillie is giving them a big toothy grin.  It has been such a wonderful year.  When Lillie gets older and starts to wonder about what she was like as a baby, I will have no horror stories of sleepless nights or an inconsolable baby.  I will be able to look at her and say that she was an absolutely perfect baby.  She's amazed me every day with how well she deals with every inconvenience that she comes across in a way that I am sure neither me or Eric did when we were babies.   Happy Birthday Lillie!
