HAPPY 3RD BIRTHDAY ELIZABETH!






Today, my "baby" turns 3. I cannot believe it!

We had her birthday party yesterday, right after church.

Can you guess what the theme of this year's birthday was?! :)

She loves all things " 'Rella" so she received quite a few princess things.

Grandma made her cake, as is now beoming tradition. A small "wedding cake" type cake-3 layers with blue sprinkles and little pearls along the layers..with of course, a 'Rella doll as a topper.


As we celebrate her birth, I have to believe that somewhere in China there is a mother who is thinking of Elizabeth too. I know that I remember nearly every detail of the days I birthed Andrew and Becca. I have to believe that Elizabeth's birthmother has the same type of memories of February 9, 2006.

Oh how I wish she could see her little girl now...to know she is safe and sound...and healthy.

and in a family that loves her.


and of course, I couldn't NOT post this picture from Elizabeth's birthday party.

Becca got HER wish from the last 10 days....to hold babyJameson again. :) She was so good and sat and held him all by herself in our recliner for a good 10-15 minutes.
She loves babies soo sooo much. :)

Happy Birthday, precious Elizabeth. I am so sorry to have missed it, but am sending big hugs E's way!

And I do believe that in China, a birthmother was thinking of her baby girl that day. I hope somehow she knows her little girl is loved and thriving.

Oh, and the photo of Becca with her baby is just precious!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELIZABETH!!!! Looks like you had such a fun and special birthday party! Wow, you are such a big girl now!

Thinking about you guys this week while we are in San Diego. So sad it didn't work out with getting together but now that I'm here it would have been hard. We are at the very end of Coronado so getting together would have been difficult. Oh well, maybe Jeff will have another trip closer to you next time....OR you'll be making your way to NC soon! Love you! Can't believe your baby is THREE!!!!!
