The birthday girl

on


Her little feet pat-patted into my room at 5:30 this morning.

"You wanna sleep inbetween me and Daddy?" I murmured, barely lifting my head from the pillow.

She nodded and I lifted her in, snuggling her body between ours, face inches from mine on the pillow. She was quiet for minute.

Then she just couldn't keep herself from giving voice to her excitement.

"Mama?" she whispered.

"What, sweetie?"

"I'm the birthday girl!" she whispered. And lying beside me in bed, she held up her fingers as proof.

One.


Two.


Three.

I started crying when I read this. In 10 days Malaki will be 4... and Lillie is so close to 3, and Kori to 1. What happened to out little babies?
It will be so fun seeing them all play at Loon lake this year though.
