Happy Third Birthday Ava Rose!

My Dear Sweet Ava,

I can't believe three years have already gone by since you came crashing into my world. I will never, ever forget this day exactly one year ago. It was by far the happiest day of my life. I remember every minute of it like it was yesterday. When the doctor finally pulled you out, it was like looking at an angel. I cried so hard I couldn't catch my breath. By the way, thats how I came up with the name of this blog. I used to always say looking at you was like seeing an angel before me. And I still feel that way about you my sweet angel.You have been a complete joy to have in my life. You are the most innocent, sweetest, drop-dead gorgeous girl Iwill ever know. It makes me sad to see you growing up so fast. I hope that you and I will always have this unbreakable bond. There is a video daddy and I had made for you when you turned one. You know it well now and you refer to it as "Ava's Baby DBD". The words to the song on that video are everything I wish for you.

My Wish

Rascal Flatts

I hope that the days come easy and the moments pass slow,

And each road leads you where you want to go,

And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,

I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.

And if one door opens to another door closed,

I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,

If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

But more than anything, more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,

Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,

You never need to carry more than you can hold,

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,

All the ones who love you, in the place you left,

I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,

And you help somebody every chance you get,

Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,

And you always give more than you take.

But more than anything, yeah, and more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,

Your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,

You never need to carry more than you can hold,

And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,

I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish.
