Well, today is my baby's birthday. (age withheld to protect me from feeling too old.) She is the dark haired one on the end. We were all done having children after Michael, but Mike had a dream that a dark curly haired baby came to him and said she wanted to be part of our family. I told him I was done and he needed to wake up and quite dreaming. He had the dream again and by the time he had the dream a second time I was already with child. I was secretly delighted to have one more child. When she was born Mike took one look at her and said that's the baby that came to me. Well she was a determined strong minded spirit before she came to us and brought that determination with her. She has been a great addition to our family. I love her with all my heart and miss her being here with me. My kids mean the world to me and I am the luckiest mom in the world. Happy Birthday Emily.........I love you.

Mom, that was so sweet, even though I was not happy about "another" child being brought into our family, (no offence Em) I am glad too that we were blessed with a sister and a friend. We love you Em.
