happy birthday alissa!

Alissa turned 11 today!
Each one of our children is so special- just for being who they are. They all have different things about them that make them so unique. Alissa though, was born at a time in our lives where the joy of just holding her was absolutely overwhelming. That joy sometimes STILL overwhelms me! She is such a sweet, funny, compassionate girl, so full of life. She makes us all so happy!

We took her out for her birthday breakfast a day early. It was her first time at Shoney's and she loved it!







I know that God has great plans for our beautiful daughter- we can't wait to watch them unfold!

Oh boy am I glad I read your blog..... I thought I was doing so well this year with birthdays and such, and somehow Alissa was left out of my reminder calendar.. I am soooooo verrrrrrrrrry sorry.
I am a terrible aunt.... =-(
Please forgive me.
But even if you don't get a card, you can still know that I love you sweet girl.... Right??!!????
