Lauren, I used to write here and dream of you for many years. Now that you're with us, we are enjoying life to the fullest. Your smile shines from your heart and we couldn't be more proud of the little girl you have grown into. You love others with all your heart and brighten each day with your laugh. I woke this morning with your sleeping face just inches from mine and I just watched you in amazement. It will be 5 years this July that we have been home together and I don't take a single day for granted. I love you Lauren.
This years Daddy/Daughter dance was you and Daddy's best yet. The first couple of years you were pretty shy to see such a big event with a full room of music and dancing and although you loved being on a date with your daddy, you left early and came home to dance in our living room instead. This year, you were a little nervous at the beginning, but after a few minutes, daddy encouraged you just to focus on him and dance in your corner of the room. You did and then it was as if you two were the only people in the room. Daddy said you both danced every dance and he twirled you in the air, you both did your famous sprinkler dance, and you had such an amazing time together! I will never forget how I heard the car radio booming up the driveway and I came to greet you and saw both your faces lit up and having soo much fun!! You excitedly told me about the night and Daddy said he had the best time ever! :)
Life is so good and we are so blessed.
