Dear Bella,
I can't believe the little girl that I longed for and finally received is already 5 years old. You came into this world on a rampage and haven't stopped since. You are so unique and energetic. Everyone who meets you absolutely adores you. You are not only beautiful but you are smart and funny. You make people smile and bring out the best in pretty much everyone. You have taught me so much about myself Bella, and you have taken my focus of me and on to you and your little sister. You love Zoe like crazy, and protect her from the world, you are the only one who gets to harass her! :o) You melt my heart with your smile and it hurts me when you hurt and all I really want to do is wrap you in my arms, put a brick on your head and keep you little and mine forever, but I know I can't do that. I know that my job is to raise you to be an independent, successful member of society, but if I could keep you all to myself and never share you I would.
You have achieved so much in your short five years on this planet, and you have had an even greater impact. You have changed my life, your daddy's life and nana and papa's lives, and none of us could ever picture life without you.
We love you so much and hope you had the best 5th birthday ever. You had a ton of fun at your party and got so much fun stuff. We look forward to every other birthday we have with you and can't wait to see what you will surprise us with next. Happy birthday angel, we love you dearly!
Love,
Mom, Dad, and Zoe
