Congratulations to our four-year-old!  We love you, Jaime.  Life has been full of spice since our little butterfly came into the world … meaning a lot of beauty, activity, and surprises.  :)  There is always a certain kind of bittersweetness that comes to me when the little ones have birthdays.  It’s so exciting to them to be growing up, and we share that excitement, yet there is the startling realization that Jaime will never again be 3 years old.  How can time fly so fast and the babies in our arms just grow up like that?  It makes you just want to stop time, but since that is impossible, then we realize we simply have to treasure every moment with our children.  Today is a day that we will never spend with them again.

People ask us if Jaime is for sure ours when they see her with Amy!
