Happy Birthday Lilly



The wind blows, stirs, billowing flaming tresses.
A mystic magic this prize of locks possesses.
Green eyes with just a hint of mischief fill
Alluding to her strength, her forceful will.
She is so like moonlight, like full moon's light.
So pale and so perfect that it just seems right,
That freckles flecked in myriad across her skin,
As in the sky one looks at the stars within.
And beautiful without bounds, are they and she,
Without stars, where would the sky's beauty be?
Not just in the brilliant sunrise flame of her hair
But how she does everything with certain flair,
There is inside her, a flame that shows through,
In everything large and small she chooses to do.
Moods and temper flit like autumn winds blow,
Not even she, knows in which direction they'll go.
Love her, hate her, be her friend or just let her be,
Not perfect, but close enough, she a redhead, she’s me.

Not everyone in this world is blessed to have a little redhead, but we are. We welcomed Lilly into our lives 2 years ago, and what an adventure it has been. We never knew the love, happiness, entertainment, joy, and hope such a little child could bring. We love her so very much and we know that if you know her you love her too.
So Happy Birthday Lilly!!! Were glad you made it to 2!

Lilly, Happy Birthday! We love you too...especially Alexa. She likes to look at her pictures and remember the good old play days with her. So is she sleeping out of her crib now?!
