There is nothing like a first birthday, and there will never be one twice...so, in the spirit of our daughters first birthday we spent it at Disneyland. I know, she won't remember it...but like I told my mother, I WILL. It was as much for me as it was for her. Maddisons first ride was Pirates of the Carribean, and boy did she have fun...from the vibration when it started and the giggles that ensued, to the drops, and finally every single pirate singing. She was eyeballing everything the entire time and taking it all in. She rode the train ride and the Pooh ride as well. We didn't want to overload her so we mostly walked around. My mom and dad played with her a bunch, held her hand as we walked and played in the waterfountain. Haha...that was precious. She had cake, mostly all over the place. It was definately a nice time and a great visit from my parents. My mom even rode a roller coaster with my dad, which I find amazing. She has let go of fear, what an amazing woman. I couldn't have gotten any luckier with the parents that God chose for me, they are the best!
It's scary almost that my daughter is growing this fast. I have to make every single day count, and enjoy every moment with her...even the moments where she is trying my patience and frustration builds. Being a parent isn't easy, and I can't let time slip by without really enjoying everything she has to offer and teach me. No wonder many people have more than one. They start missing those amazing moments of the firsts. Anywho, I look forward to many more firsts with my precious, beautiful, smart and amazing little person. I think she is the reason I'm here.
I love you miss maddi. Happy first birthday!
