Dear Miss. Ivy, Today you are 12! I can’t believe you came into the world 12 years ago screaming and me? Crying. The day you were born was the best day of my life. My dad told me from that moment on that time would fly, and I should have believed him harder. Because let me tell you, I blinked and here we are. Lately, I’ve been looking at you in so much awe, just thinking to myself how much you look like your dad but you have all my personality. And even then, you’re still neither of us. You’re ...

Riley is 4.
Hi guys! Today my baby girl is 4 years young. I read a post on Instagram that said something along the lines of it feels like yesterday I was just checking what fruit you were every week.
