Ava

Ava Edyn...
With your greenish eyes and silly smiles...
Purring like a tiger - and with the same fight...

13 Months have passed. She's def not a baby anymore. But sometimes, when I hold her real close she still curls into the newborn ball and relaxes into my arms. She still smells like a baby - with the soft scent of baby lotion, clean clothes and rubber toys. Her voice is strong, but sweet. She gives open mouth kisses and bear hugs. She loves, without caring who receives.

I know all too soon you'll be all grown up.
So for now, I'm treasuring these days. I'm treasuring these hours and minutes with you and your tiny hands... tiny giggles... and big mischief...
