My best girl, Delaney Happy birthday to you Last single-digit year How can this be true? Everyone said “Don’t blink, don’t bat an eye.” Yet each year I find myself more surprised. Startled at the time, how swift. What speed I look back at all the memories Your small fingers curled around mine Your tiny toes wiggle, face shines. Look at you now— Paintings, drawings cover the walls Journals filled with cursive writing, stories to recall A joy to be your mother Your soul bright Happy Birthday to our Lane Train— Keep moving forward with your light.
We write together today! We hope to see you at 11 a.m. (EST) and please feel free to invite a friend. The link is below, simply click the button to join our Zoom room.
Take good care,
