To say you are "spirited" does not give your spunk any justice.
You are my Treasure.
You, Maya Rose, the baby I held in my arms 5.5 years ago, weighing 5.5lbs ~ Came into my life August 21,2007 and today you continue to make a remarkable impression in my world.
You have brought my soul to life; Waking me up to the simple joys I don't always slow down to notice. Impromptu (usually solo) Flash Mobs Performances, Barbie Dream House Playing, much needed cuddling time, a story at the end of a long day, those blue eyes asking me for a braid in your hair to help you sleep... The Simple Joys that I will try my hardest to cling to when you are no longer needing my help.
Seeing the love your heart holds has been a beautiful experience. It has been open to acceptance and forgiveness, never compromised with the addition of another brother. You have handled Jonah with so much grace, patience and kindness that will teach him to grow in all of the precious qualities you embody.
I hope you always know that second born never means second best...
Thank You for colorfully painting my world my love.
