Today is my daughter’s birthday. It was a special day for her, but at first it was a very special day for her father and me. Our first baby.
Amanda was the first child born to us. She was healthy and happy and amazingly beautiful! We both immediately fell in love with our girl.
Amanda made me a mother, and as I took care of her, I realized that each day she taught me so much. It continues to this day.
She was a bright and alert baby who seemed to grow up very quickly. Always sweet and loving, yet determined to set the world on fire.
Whatever she sets her mind to, she accomplishes, but perhaps her greatest accomplishment is being a wonderful mother to her two kids, their three dogs, and a cat!
Savannah & Amanda.
Quinn and Amanda.
I am so proud of the woman she has become. She is a self-made woman who continues tackling challenges many would run from.
So, on this special birthday, I wish her good health, much happiness, and the fulfillment of all her dreams.
I love you so much, Amanda!
