happy one year birthday eloise!

posted by mommy and daddy

to our dear sweet baby girl,
as i sit her writing this to you, i am in awe thinking back on the past year and just how fast it has gone. you have truly been a joy in our lives and a beautiful addition to our family. your smile is larger than life, and your excitement for playing with your brothers has astounded us. you have been loved on more than you will ever know in this whirlwind of your first year. we couldn't have prayed for a more content, happy, and "easy" baby to bring fullness to our family. true, we've had our hard moments - like when you cut five teeth in two months and had a very hard time sleeping! but all in all, you have been, and continue to be, a true delight each day. we get so excited when we see on the monitor that you are awake...so ready to be infected with your gorgeous, big smile to start our day. owen and everett fell completely in love with you before you were even born and have been amazing, protective, and playful big brothers. we know God has so many wonderful things in store for your life as you continue to grow and learn and become the young girl He wants you to be. you are a light in our lives and we pray that you shine that same light each day to everyone who meets you. we love you so so much. in the words of owen when you were still so little, "{we} just can't stop loving you."
