Happy Birthday my Sweet Hazel!!

Happy Birthday Hazel!!! Today is my sweet little baby's birthday. As I am sure you hear from Mom's all the time, it went way too fast. It is very much a bittersweet day for me. I remember the day I had her, in Indianapolis, Indiana. I was in labor for nearly 24 hours before they had me start trying to push. Hazel kept hitting my pelvic bone and would not come through. After 2 hours of pushing they decided to do a C-section (not an emergency one though, thankfully). The second that girl came out and I heard her cry, I cried. She was so beautiful. She was 8 lbs 9 oz and 21.5 inches long. What a blessing she has been in my life every since. I really cannot imagine my life without her. She is everything to me. Here are 10 things I love about her...

1. She is always smiling and she has a beautiful smile.
2. The way she tilts her head to the side when she wants to be silly.
3. The way she opens and closes her hands when she wants something.
4. Her laugh, it's contagious.
5. The way she runs to me and just puts her arms around me.
6. Her sweet "mm..aa" kisses, with her mouth open and slobbery still, of course.
7. Her curiousness, she wants to see everything and touch everything
8. Her slyfulness, if there is way out of the room around my blockings, she finds it...
9. Her jibber jabber, I love to listen to her talk.
10. Her beauty, I am very blessed to have such a beautiful girl.
I love you Hazel, more then I could ever say!!!
