OMG, My Baby's A Teenager!!!

Happy Birthday, Caedyn!!!

Baby, ever since you were born, you have taught me more about love and joy than I could have ever dreamed would be possible. You've taught me just how much of myself I can really give, how far I can strive, and how beautiful life can be. I've never been more proud of my role in anyone's life than I am in my chance to be a mother to you, and I pray every day that the guidance that you find in me comes from God's grace and wisdom rather than my own shortcomings.

So little really changes with these numbers we assign ourselves with the passing of the years. What does change is our experiences and how we see the world around us. My prayer for you is that each of your experiences brings you one step closer to the man I know you'll be one day.

Learn from your mistakes. Embrace who you are. Don't worry so much about being perfect while you're figuring out just who Caedyn is, and know that we love you no matter what.

Never forget that cord that connects my heart to yours.
