Happy Birthday My Sweet Little Girl

My sweet AnnaBelle is 1 today. I'm amazed at how quickly the year has flown by. Here is a pic of Nathan at that age.http://vafarmliving.blogspot.com/2005/11/happy-birthday-my-beautiful-beautiful.html The initial shock back in August of '07 when I found out I was pregnant again at 41 and then finding out in November that I was having a girl. Her name is a combination of my middle name and my Mom's name. She passed away from Mesothelioma in April of '07. She would have spoiled this little precious baby beyond belief! God I miss her more and more every day, but I try to remember how she raised the 8 of us and when I get in a situation where instinct kicks in, I feel her guiding me.

So today my little doodlebug is 1 and soon will be walking all over this house and farm and before I know it.......on to a life of her own! Happy Birthday my little girl. ♥
