I feel like such a loser is so many aspects of my life, especially motherhood. But I'll tell you what, I feel like I did something right when I look at Jessica, even though a lot of it has nothing to do with me. Jessi turned 10 years old on December 29Th...that's a DECADE!!!
We had a rough go at it from day one when they found a heart murmur, - what am I talking
about?! We are still having a rough go at and I'm pretty sure we will until we die. Anyway, despite everything this precious little girl has gone through, she has and is the bright ray of light that gives me hope in the dark. She teaches ME things that I should be teacher HER. She's everything that I wish I was at each stage in her life, and I am so blessed to have her as my daughter, and my constant reminder to do a little better.
Although Bob cannot wait for her to turn 12 (babysitting age), I most definitely can! I don't want her to grow up, at least not this quickly. I need her, probably more than she needs me! She is such a sweet, caring, sensitive, smart, funny, talented girl.
Jessica loves playing the piano, loves cheer/dance class, enjoys reading, loves her brothers (most of the time), will actually sit through a whole movie without getting up or asking questions (like her brothers) , is extremely stubborn (wonder who she got that from), rocks at school, loves to be outdoors, and is a wonderful friend to everyone, once you can get her past the "quiet/shy" phase.
Happy Birthday, my sweet, precious princess! I LOVE you!!!
