Three Years Ago Yesterday

Our baby girl turned three years old yesterday! She started life in the world as a four pound 32-weeker- the biggest and healthiest baby in the NICU for five weeks. Now, she is mature and thoughtful enough to listen respectfully as everyone sings to her yet again (cake on Saturday, cake on Sunday, cake on Monday) and doesn't need to be prompted to say "Thank you" to a gift-giver. And then she goes out to play in the dirt while her watercolor paint is drying on her face...no matter how much trouble she's making, she is a gift from God and a credit to her family.
