Well, yesterday was Juliana's 4th birthday! It was such a busy day! She and her sisters went shopping with Grammie!! I got to finish up some paperwork related to her completed lawsuit.

We watched Isabel play soccer, then we made dinner, had cake and opened presents.

I can't believe that four years have gone by. In some ways it feels like yesterday...and in others, she just seems so big.

I have to say, that time heals a lot of the wounds. I was incredibly emotional for the first 3 years...this year was not so bad. No tears, just enjoyment! I just had a fabulous time watching her open her gifts!

Juliana has become a wonderful, thoughtful, talkative, funny, interested and interesting little girl. I don't have to see her for what she can NOT do, but I can see her for what she CAN do.

She has made me a better person.

For those of you who are new here (and there are way too many of you...awareness....) and it all seems so overwhelming, know that there is a light on this journey.

So, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JULIANA! I couldn't love you more.

Happy belated birthday Juliana! I hope you had a wonderful party and will get what you wished for when you blew out the candles! (Claudia, thank you for reminding us what is most important especially on the day that our child was born. You are right that time heals the wounds. I am not quite there yet but I am starting to see the light at the end.)
