To a father growing older nothing is dearer than a daughter. ~Euripides

You started life as you live it.  On the side – coming in so easy that the doctor wasn’t even prepared.  Blue, but your instant cries brought tears to your Daddy’s eyes.

Despite your desire to sleep nowhere but on someone’s heartbeat, or in your carseat, you were so easy when you were tiny.  A blessing to fill our house even more.

Even as you grew and your struggles began, you continued to touch our hearts. Through your struggles that we made our own, our love for you grew and grew.  Even as you frustrate us, we cherish your unique heart and soul.  Your unique spirit helps us treasure each and every genuine smile.

We love you, Molly…and are so happy and proud to see you become such an incredibly smart and beautiful girl.  A big girl at 7 years old.

Happy Birthday baby!
