She's a year old today, but it's not her birthday...

This is a weird post, I admit. But those who know me well, know that sometimes I have weird things to say. Weird things tend to come out of my weird mind, and I'm okay with that.

That said: Today Charlotte is exactly a year old. For real! Because of the bumpy path we had to parenthood, we had to be pretty 'in the know' about the hows and the whens of everything, so that the proper medications would begin at the proper times. Exactly one year today - two cells came together and - when sprinkled with a little God magic - started to form our sweet baby girl. It would be 11 more days until her presence was confirmed, but April 17th was Day 1. How amazing is He???? So good. So very, very good.


As far as "time since birth" goes, Charlotte is now 3 months old. She laughs, talks, can almost roll over, and just today - reached out and grabbed something intentionally. Her personality is becoming more and more colorful, and how she feels about things is becoming more and more apparent. One of our favorite "Charlotte-isms" so far is 'the lip.' If you get 'the lip' you know you've done something to make her very, very unhappy.


How pathetic, yet adorable, is that?
