A lot of people I know blog letters to their kids on their birthdays to preserve the memories. I'm still a pen and paper kind of girl so instead that will be an addition to the baby book. However I can't say enough about the village that is helping us raise our girls. There is support from so many angles that the girls will never question if people care about them. If you are someone in our village Thank You for being a part of their lives and ours.
Looking back at a year ago today I was nervous about how we were going to care for two children and make them feel equally loved. I think the key was Kate having so many friends to hug her along the way (whether she wanted the hugs or not!). They never let her get lonely or lost in the shuffle. I hope that all the little people Leia hangs out with now become the friends she hugs when she needs a little extra support.
Here's to the birthday girl!

"Whether she wanted the hugs or not". Classic.
We are lucky to have you all. And you are stuck with us.
Wishing we were part of the Village and not the ends of the earth. We were in Nicaragua for Leia's birthday, look for a little gift in the mail.
