Happy Birthday Julia!

My baby girl is 12 today!
I guess she is technically a young woman now.
Oh my, where does the time go?
I remember her birth like it was yesterday...
more nervous about her delivery than any of the others.
Going into the operating room to deliver her by c-section, 
I could hear Emily's eight-year-old declaration
 that her new little sister would be her "twin" and look like her.
My first thought when I saw Julia Josephine was Emily's wish had come true.


Her big brown eyes and dimpled cheeks make my heart melt.
As the youngest she gets more attention and direction from all of us than she probably needs or wants, but boy, we love this girl to pieces!

Our Julia Jo was just what we needed to complete our family!


Happy Birthday Julia!
We love you!
