Happy Birthday Izzy Anne

Today is one of my favorite days, it’s the day God gave me a beautiful, smart, funny and amazing daughter. I know I’ve said this before but it bares repeating, I prayed for a daughter who would have big brown eyes, long dark hair, one who would be strong, funny and compassionate.

God gave me that and more in you, I loved you so much and am so proud of you.

I know you’re not a teenager and you have been on your own for quite a while but there’s so much more that I feel you need to know.

It’s just too soon for you to be a fully grown adult, it happened way too fast. You have grown into a smart, capable fully functional adult. One who carved her life out to fit your own expectations and you are nothing short of amazing.

I hope you have an amazing day, filled with laughter, love and the knowledge that you deserve to have a peace filled life, with abundant joy and adventure.

I love you so much,

Mom
