Today is my friend Amy's birthday, and I want to celebrate her. Amy and I have been through a lot together in the 11 years that we have been friends. God has allowed us to experience some of life's greatest thrills and sorrows. We met at a youth retreat and by the end of the weekend were both hopeful to begin a new friendship. Amy and I have been through so much together. She has watched me make stupid choices, and she has loved me through every moment. I haven't ever really watched her make stupid choices (she is very wise) but I have loved her though difficult times. Amy and I have celebrated ten of each others birthdays, first cars, first and only boyfriends, high school graduation, college graduation, engagement, marriage, and most recently children. I was so blessed to be at the hospital within hours of both Elena and Evan's births. Amy was also with me when Caroline was born. She shared in our joy and documented the whole event with her camera skills.
All in all, our friendship has blessed me beyond words. I don't know that there are very many people who have been blessed with a friendship like ours. Amy I love you, and I celebrate your life today. Happy Birthday!

Caroline is 3 Months Old
Well as of September 7, Caroline is 3 months old. She is so adorable right now. She smiles when I get her out of her crib in the morning. She loves to smile when I change her diaper, as if to say how appreciative she is. She is sleeping 8 hours at night now, but she still naps all day. She hardly ever cries and if she does, it is so that I know she is ready for bed. She is oddly like me in her desire to sleep a lot. She is holding her head up really well now, and we think she is on the verge of discovering her feet. Her hands have been a toy for over a month now. She loves to talk to herself. In the morning, I hear her on the monitor having a conversation with her mobile. She also loves to talk to the bees that spin around the top of her swing. All in all, she is wonderful. We love her so much. These are some of her 3 month pictures with her teddy bear.
