How quickly life changes…
From one week to the next….
From one month to twelve.
And all the days in between.
A stunning journey of growth as you watch a baby go through their first year…
And not just any baby, but a first GRANDbaby.
I have to admit…I have cried a few tears.
I will probably cry a few more.
Every moment a gift.
Every gift a blessing.
Every blessing a living, breathing miracle.
Now we prepare for her FIRST Birthday party!
It’s today.
She is one.
She will even hold up her finger to show you.
Because she is a happy baby.
And this happy baby holds Grammy’s whole heart pressed between those little hands.
Happy Birthday, Averey! Grammy can’t wait to celebrate it with you.
Awww so darling! Happy birthday!

Awh! SWEET! What a great day for grandbabies!!! I think it was 104 degrees on her birthday, but that is August here in Texas. Lots of swim parties in her future. Happy belated to your two-year-old buddy!

I’m amazed too! Doesn’t seem possible. I think next year it will be even more surreal. I’m lucky to have a photography subject! Hope she stays liking the camera. LOL.
