Happy Birthday Laura!

Where has the time gone? I feel a bit cliche saying that, but it is so true.

One year ago today we were in Flowers Hospital holding our precious baby girl, Laura Beall Faulk. 6 lbs 9 oz and 20.5 inches long. She had jet black hair. When she would cry, Laura made funny little snorting noises. Maybe that was God's way of relaxing us because we couldn't stop from laughing at the sound.

And today she's one. Laura has been walking for two months now! She eats dinner with us like a big girl. We put together her new car seat last night - she'll see the world going forward now. Laura will have her birthday party Saturday morning filled with family, cake, bubbles and balloons - just a few of her favorite things.

Looking back I can honestly say we didn't know what we were getting into. But now, I can't imagine life without her. Through all the sleepless nights, bottles, diapers, growth spurts, crawling, walking, running - she truly is a blessing.

Happy Birthday Laura.
