It’s been 10 years and one day

since I officially got the title of Mother, thanks to this chickadee.Shelbyweb

{sigh}

It’s been quite a journey. I’m forever changed because of her. There is something special about a first child. She is amazing. I learn so much from her on a constant basis. It stinks to be her sometimes, having to break in the rookie parents, but we’re all trying our best. She’s a champ.

Love you, birthday girl.

    She is very beautiful–like her mom. It’s amazing how much moms can learn from daughters.

    Shelby, this is Rachel. Happy Birthday! How do you like being ten? Did you have a party? I hope that you had a lot of fun! We have been camping for a few days and have moved this week. It’s been busy! How do you like your haircut? I think it is REALLY cute on you. I’m thinking of getting my hair cut short, too.

    Aww - Happy belated birthday to Shelby. She is growing up so fast. Her face is changing - she is looking more and more like a tween!

    Happy Birthday to Dave too!

    We have been bad friends - not keeping in touch. We need to be better this summer!
