My precious Caitlyn, you turned 5 today. I still just do not know how we got here. This morning after waking you up by singing Happy Birthday, you looked at me and said, "Mommy, how many days is 5 years"? It was amazing to me the number that came out of my mouth (after doing some quick math in my head).....1, 825 days. Oh, how those days have changed me! 1, 825 days of you being one of my first thoughts of the day. 1, 825 days of watching you learn new things. 1, 825 days of your sweet touches. 1, 825 days of hoping you see a little of who God is in Daddy and I. 1, 825 days of being so very proud of you. 1, 825 days of hope for your future. 1, 825 days of trying to understand a love that so mirrors God's love for us. 1, 825 days of doing what I have ALWAYS wanted to do-----be your mother. Reminiscing......................................you were three days old in this picture.
You are one happy girl!!!!!!!
Here you are modeling after opening your gifts.......my beautiful princess Caitlyn........with "glass" slippers and all (which was the one thing you asked for over and over).

happy birthday Caitlyn! I'm not quite sure I can tell if your mommy loves you?!! (ha-ha) You must be one special little girl! (I mean big 5 year old girl!)
Oh my, this made me cry! What a beautiful tribute to your little Caitlyn. Time goes by so fast, but it is evident to me that you are making the most of each moment that God allows you to be with those girls.
Happy Birthday sweet Caitlyn! I will never forget holding you when you first came home from the hospital & I was already pregnant with Jake but didn't know it! I remember how little & precious you were & trying to imagine what it would be like to have a baby of my own.
You are such a joy everytime I see you & I wish for a lifetime of love, happiness & princesses for you!
Happy Birthday, Caitlyn! I hope to get to know you better sometime in the near future!
Happy Birthday Caitlyn!! I can't believe she is 5. Time flies.
Heidi told me that you guys met. I am so happy that you did. I was telling her about you guys. Take care of her in Nashville!!
