Dear Facebook,
You have allowed me to keep some of my favorite memories wrapped up in packages and just when I've boxed them up and put them on a shelf, you give me small reminders to remember.
Tonight as I was coming on your site to look at friends pages and play some Scrabble, you put a picture in my right corner that caught my eye.
This picture is one of my favorites and it brought some lovely memories tonight.
My love.
It started with my Sweet Sophia. Her dimples, her shyness, her eyes, and that smile that makes you wonder what she is thinking.
On to Ryan Douglas, my heart. His crooked smile, his crooked little nose. I cannot even imagine my life without my boy to balance the craziness that is having three girls.
Olivia, my free spirit. This girl is smart, funny, and perfect (her own words). She is growing up way too quickly. I'm almost certain she was just a baby last week. She has brought so much joy into our lives. She's a nut!
And Miss Grace. She started it all for me. Finally understanding what people meant, trying to understand the explanation of what it feels like to love a child. She was my entire world. She was my buddy, My Only One. I held her from the time we woke up until the time I put her to bed. She is so sweet, kind, and my helper. And still My Only One.
I would not trade one moment, one second with any of our children for the world. I only hope that I love them enough. I hope that when they go to bed each night they know that I love them with all of my heart and nothing can ever change that.
I have been so blessed.
Life is so short. This past year has been filled with irreplaceable memories and necessary life lessons.
Now, I'm going to go kiss my kids, cover their toes, and whisper how much I love them.
Goodnight,
-Tracie
