Happy 5th Birthday, Lexi
A new baby. A clean slate. No inkling of what this little bundle of joy would bring.
No, we didn’t know that you would be sweet
Or quiet
Or loud
Or shy
Or outgoing
Or charming
All at the same time
We didn’t know that you would love chicken
Or ketchup
Or vanilla ice cream
Or chocolate milk
Or suckers
Or grilled cheese and tomato soup (just to dip it in)
We didn’t know that you would love all that glitters
sparkles
and shines
How were we to know that you would love Hannah Montana
Or iCarly
Or Spongebob
Or Disney Princesses
Or Marley and Me
We certainly didn’t know you would like closed doors
Or closed drawers
Or nifty hangars
Or carpet cleaners
Or Oxi-clean
We didn’t know that you would love tights
Or shoes
Or purses
Or spare change
Or bracelets
Or necklaces
Or sunglasses
I guess we just weren’t prepared for Lexi.
Little girl, I couldn’t love you anymore if I tried. Thank you for being you. Thank you for being Lexi. Thank you for being my daughter.
I love you.
Happy 5th Birthday, Lexi.

So, so beautiful! Please give Lexi lots of birthday hugs from us!
That very nearly made me cry! It was beautiful (:
Wish her a Happy Birthday from me!
That was so sweet. She’s grown into a beautiful little girl. You must be so proud. Wish her a happy birthday. Hope it’s a wonderful day filled with lots of dreams, cake and giggles

ok that made me teary eyed
Me too! And I am so happy you are documenting this!
I adore her dressed as a bride, that is just too precious. That’s a perfect photo for those cute wedding slideshows.
absolutely adorable……..that’s Lexi
Ok, you have just made the most compelling case for having kids that I’ve ever heard. Not that you’ve changed my mind, but if anything would it would be that.
I remember the day of that top photo shoot as if it were yesterday. Was that really almost 5 years ago?
Happy birthday to Lexi, the youngest bridesmaid I had and the only one that didn’t need to get her hair done!

Aw, Melissa, I hadn’t thought about that! You probably COULD have done her hair though with all she was born with!
