One and a Zero.
Diez.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 and now 10.
It went that fast.
I will never forget looking up at the monitor in the doctor’s office and seeing not one, but two bright heartbeats.
And then hearing the news that there would two girls.
I wanted you to be just alike.
I dressed you up in matching clothes for years and years.
I wanted everyone to treat you the same.
Silly me.
You are both so marvelous in your own special way.
And exactly as God meant you to be.
I marvel in the love that you share so effortlessly with your brother.
I know that the three of you will always be close, long after we are gone.
Creative.
Stubborn.
Smart.
Empathetic.
Insatiable.
Funny.
And a little bit sassy.
Happy Birthday Catherine and Savannah.
I can’t wait to see what the next 10 years will bring.
I am just hoping it doesn’t go by so fast.
Love,
Mom
Stay Sassy Y’all.

You always hear how it goes by so fast. I never believed it until now! What will we do with ourselves!
