Happy Birthday Abbey!


Abbey is turning 2 today! I am so excited for her birthday party tomorrow. It is amazing to think that on April 21, 2005, she was found at the fruit market in her little town. I am so grateful for the people who found her and took care of her. I am so thrilled that God has allowed me to be her mom. I showed her a little Elmo video about birthdays and practiced the Happy Birthday song and blowing out a candle. Her face lit up and she loved it, but I don't think she really knows what is going on. I do know she is going to flip over the trike I got her. She keeps pointing out a picture of one in a book and one on a neighbor's fron porch and saying "YES!" when I ask her if she wants one. Yea!
