5



My sweet Pea turned the big 5 in November. Every day that she has been on this earth has been such a gift. I have grown so much with her + feel like when I had her it was like a rebirth for myself. I get to redo all my wrongs with her + see everything in a new light. I hope she continues to be the magical little fireball she is today. 

Not being from Texas + with my immediate family thousands of miles apart, I wanted to make her birthday special. She said she wanted a pink party so that's what I did for her. We surprised her with decorations + gifts as soon as she woke up. She had dance that day so since I like to keep her committed, she went + took treats to her little friends. After dance, we went to her favorite pizza arcade for lunch + let play every game too many times + get a bunch of junk with her tickets. 

I am forever grateful she is healthy + growing like a flower but my heart aches every day that she grows older. Her eyes still twinkle the same as they did when she was born + I still get to see that baby face when she sleeps, but oh what I wouldn't give to snuggle that newborn baby girl. She is my moon.
