My dearest sweet girl,
It's been four years...and what wonderful ones they've been. Instead of being sad today that you are growing up so fast, I'm so very thankful and happy. Reaching milestones has a new meaning for me through you...we're elated that you're now four, a healthy four year old. Your zest for life, your spunk and the sincere love you share with everyone brings such joy to our lives. You have a wisdom beyond your years and the compassion you have for others is such a blessing to witness. We have learned so much from you Maddie. Thank you for making our lives so full. You have taught us, inspired us and helped us become better people. We love you very much and we're so proud of you.
Love,
Mommy, Daddy and the boys
