Sarah's first year



Happy first birthday, baby Sarah!

It was one year ago today that we met my niece, Sarah, for the first time. This angel took our breath away and continues to bring an indescribable happiness to all of our lives everyday.

We've really enjoyed watching Sarah develop from an infant to an active and engaging little girl.

Personally, I've never been this close to a baby entering the world, and it's amazing at how exciting every little change becomes. When Sarah was able to smile and react - wow! When Sarah was able to sit up on her own - wow! When Sarah was able to start eating 'real' food - wow! When Sarah pulled herself up and stood up - wow! And all the little things in-between, it's just amazing.

It's going to feel like a single heartbeat has passed when we look back at this day because she's going to grow up so fast. But I'm going to enjoy the journey being the proud uncle and make sure she know how much we love her and are thankful she's part of our lives.

Happy first birthday, Sarah - it only gets better!
