We had a family lunch at Chili's and enjoyed eating some good appetizers and all shared a Molten Chocolate Cake (Yum!). After her nap this afternoon, I changed Sydni's clothes and took some birthday pictures, and I had a very hard time just posting a couple. So, enjoy all of the pictures!
Sydni started her life out smiling, and has completed her first year, still smiling. We love you so much, Sydni Lee! You have filled our lives with so much joy. When I graduated from Jr. High, my mom gave me a little book that had the sweetest poem on it, and today, I thought I would put that poem on my post. There are parts of it that are for an older girl, but overall, it sums up so sweetly the way that I feel about my sweet little girl.
My Daughter, My Friend
A little girl-child, what a joy!
To think some say, 'I'd like a boy'
When looking forward to a birth -
They never knew a daughter's worth.
What price, a laugh so full of glee?
How much, a fairy on my knee?
A nickel's worth of shining hair
and ribbons, or a smile so fair.
What cost, to see her grow too soon
Toward high-heels, lipstick, and perfume?
No, money couldn't pay for her,
And so God loaned her, as it were.
For, it's worth more than I could spend,
For such a daughter, and a friend.

Happy Birthday, my sweet little angel!

Oh my goodness! She is just a little doll. I can't believe she is already a year old. These are all such precious shots of her. I can see why you had a hard time picking one. I am glad you took the time to upload all of these. They are priceless and she is just a little angel sent from heaven into your family.
I just don't think she could be any cuter!
Happy HAPPY birthday, gorgeous girl!! You are a DOLL!
