Happy Birthday Sophia Hope!

Today, my little girl turns 5 years old. Five years ago today was one of the happiest moments of my life. I remember every moment of that day, down to the sweet smell of her hair and the sound of her tiny cry. When I first became a parent, I don't think I thought much past toddlerhood. Now, I'm raising a school-aged child and find myself recalling the moments I shared with my own mom and dad. These are now days she will remember. She will be able to recall her first days of Kindergarten. She will have memories beyond this blog. She will remember her teachers and friends, experiences and new adventures. As she grows, I hope she remembers how much her Mommy and Daddy love her. I hope the memories she takes with her will forever bring a smile to her face, as my childhood did for me. I wish my Sophia Hope a very happy 5th birthday and the very best of memories from this day.
