Happy 3rd Birthday to my sweet little girl!

We are super duper busy today making cupcakes, food for Thanksgiving, preparing for our day trip to North Platte tomorrow...but here are some pictures. Can't believe she is 3! Such a big girl, and she is so thrilled that it is her birthday.






While these were loading I searched for some quotations about becoming a Mother. Because while this is Alex's Birthday, it's also my Birth-Day, the day I became a Mother. The Day I felt a love stronger than any love I had ever felt. Or even thought was possible. It's the scariest and best thing I have ever experienced. My heart swells when I watch my children play together, when I am so blessed as to hold a sleeping child for a few sweet minutes. To see the amount of pure, unharnessed excitement that simple things bring to my children. They are my WORLD!

"A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path."
-- Agatha Christie

    The day Alex was born was very special to me too...my first grandchild! Alex has brought so much joy to all of us. I love spending time with her. The quote couldn't be more accurate. I love it.
