I’ve heard the good advice before that you should write about what you know.

You should write about what you love.

That makes it all easy.

Our little girl has a birthday today….so writing about her is easy.

She’s someone I both….know and love.

So….Happy Birthday, Sparrow!

The Happiest of Birthdays!

I remember eating cafeteria turkey with our other children the day you were born….and bringing a piece of pecan pie back for Mommy at the hospital.

Do you remember all of us holding you there? Do you remember us smiling at your little face? Touching your tiny hand?

That was a good day….the day you were born.

Now, you’re up at 5:29…and the cartoons and activity and getting ready for school and all the things we do when we get up in the morning have begun.

“THIS IS THE BEST PARTY EVER!!” you said when you got up and you saw the decorations that we’d put up the night before.

THIS IS THE BEST PARTY EVER!

Words of wisdom…..words to live by.

Having you in our lives is the best party ever!

How did something good like that ever happen to me?

Thankyou for your birthday, Sparrow!

I am so glad that you’re around!
