Yesterday was St. Patrick's Day and a big day at our house - Mia turned 5!
Mia was born on a Monday, just like her birthday this year, and I remember it so clearly.... waiting, waiting at the hospital while Mia's birthmother endured a long (seemingly endless) labor, being so nervous waiting for the baby to arrive. She finally made her entrance into the world at 4:59 pm on March 17, as I watched her being born. It was the most incredible experience of my life, becoming a mother for the first time.
Our "full of life" girl was soooo excited that it was her birthday yesterday. When she arrived at school, she ran up to her teacher and said, "The birthday girl is here!" It was a fun-filled day.
Daddy made his girl a special "Mia pancake" for breakfast.

We had a birthday dinner at home followed by cake and presents. As usual, our family joined us for the celebration.
Happy Birthday, baby girl. You are a treasure.
The Lord Bless you and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up his countenance upon you
and give you peace.
Love,
Mama and Daddy
