Ama's First Birthday
What a year of memories! Twelve months of
Oma aahs as I w
atched Ama grow from an adorable chubby-cheeked infant into an inquisitive, lovable, and beautiful toddler.
I am are smitten with her!!! I am blessed and lucky to see her almost everyday. I am are crazy about her and I applaud her every discovery. I can sit on the floor for hours watching her explore the world. It is hard to describe the flood of emotions I feel when she comes in my house and eagerly reaches for me to take her in my arms! She makes crazy snorting faces, laughs out loud, batts her eyes, winks when she knows she being clever, and gives me little comfort pats when I hug her tight. Farm chores are put on hold when Ama arrives. I have written about the power of a grandparent, but to know the power of a grandchild----Oh my, am I smitten!!!
HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY, AMA
Ama's first birthdy was celebrated with family and friends
with a pool party at her house on Lookout Court.
Thank you, Sloan, for taking these great pictures of all the fun!
