All of the other posts I have written on the birthdays of my other 3 children have just flowed from my fingers onto the screen. Not this one. I have been pondering this post for days. And days. I do not know where to begin or how to stop. How do I write about Margaret Faith? My last child. My forth child? Other then to say, Happy Birthday My Darling.
You slid into my arms five years ago and I knew, deep in my bones that we were finally all together. One of my first coherent thoughts was, "Let the party begin. We are all here."
You are a joy, full of wit and humor, as stubborn as the day is long and gifted with a set of lungs that could curdle cream. You are like and unlike your sisters and brother. You are you in such a concrete, real sense.
Happy Birthday, Baby Girl. You keep me young. You keep me sane. You bring me joy and laughter every single day.

That's precious! What awesome pictures.
You pondered well, that is an awesome tribute to your baby!
That is beautiful.
I love the picture of her breastfeeding her child with the bottle sitting on the couch.
I have missed your voice.
She's a total sweetheart! Please wish her a super happy birthday for me.
Hi - That was beautiful as usual. I love the shot at the end with her eye to eye with Elenor. (Is that Elenor? Sorry if I got it wrong.) They look so much alike. They look like you, too!
She's precious.
Oh, happy birthday - a lovely post!
I just can't stand it. I can't believe our babies are FIVE (Eva will be next week). How did that happen? Weren't we just pregnant?
Happy Birthday Margaret.
