Happy Birthday Maggie Kate!!!










I can't believe you are 7! What a wonderful blessing you have been to our family. We love it when you come over to play. You cheer us up with your dancing and smiles. The Lord has blessed you with such a sweet spirit.


On the day you were born...your mom was sure she wasn't going into labor. Her legs were just hurting! I drove her to the hospital because she just knew your daddy didn't need to take off work yet-But you were ready to come into this world ready or not!!! You had tons of friends and family there waiting for you. Steve and Mama C were running to make it in time so that your Mama C could be there. We were so excited to share in the life of our new little friend.

Even though we are not family-it feels like you are part mine. You are a highlight in my life.I am so grateful to watch you grow! I are so glad Caroline has you for a friend.I love you-Happy Birthday sweet girl.

Oh Gretchen that is so sweet...you made me cry. I remember like it was yesterday that phone conversation and the trip to the hospital. I was convinced that I was not in labor, because I was scheduled to go in 2 days later. I had it all planned out and in my mind I could not be in labor, but she was not going to wait! Thank you for your sweet post about my baby girl.
