Happy 2nd Birthday Eden!!!



It's hard for her mother and I to believe but today our little girl is officially 2 years old.  The time has flown by (just like all of you said it would) but it has been a series of blessings, day after day. 

We had  a celebration on Saturday and it was a joy to see Eden finally realize what saying "birthday party" 6319 times actually meant:



And of course to see her open all of the many wonderful gifts that she received:


This age has been described as "terrible" by many and we have already had our share of "battles."  We know that there will be many more ahead (since it is clear that we instilled in her Mommy's Type A drive and Daddy's classic bullheadedness and curiousity :)  But we also know that raising her is a gift from God and we will be rightly equipped by Him as necessary.  We may need reminded of that every now and again though so don't hesitate to do that. 

Seeing her grow up, learn, explore, and self discover has been so much fun.  Every day has been a gift and we can't tell her enough.....

WE LOVE YOU EDEN:


Happy Birthday Peeps.  Hope your day is wonderful and your brother gives you a break from stealing your food!
