Happy Birthday Savannah Mae

Savannah woke up this morning and begged to open just one gift. Of course, I obliged. Next she was off to school where she got to bake cupcakes one on one with her teacher. While baking, the other students were outside playing (supervised by someone else). Savannah felt honored to have the time with T. Michelle. Savannah came home with a plate full of cupcakes, a personalized apron (courtesy of her classmates), and the most fantastic smile. After arriving home, Savannah was able to have a quiet gift opening with mommy and daddy, just the way she likes it. Next, her sisters gave her some presents and then we were off to Red Robin. Savannah enjoyed the singing, clapping, and the birthday sundae.

After a birthday snuggle, Savannah is tucked in bed. While snuggling, we talked about how much I love her. She then wondered if everyone loves her the same. I said, "Mommy and Daddy love you the most." Well, that didn't go over well so I had to pretend I was joking. She likes to think that all of her family, friends, and teachers love her with every fiber of their being. I know I certainly do. I asked her, "Who needs you the most?" She looked at me and hugged me saying, "You do Mommy." That I do. She is my rock, my encouragement, and my first born. Savannah made me a Mommy and I have never been the same since!


By far the best six years of my life...
