This piece made me think of my own little firecracker (born in August, but fiery nonetheless)…beautifully written!

Happy, happy birthday, Scarlett! This post makes me want to give her a great big hug. So well written– and one day, when there is a photo of her at college with that lampshade on her head, you can remind her that you called it.

My advice to all rookie moms – write a blog post (or letter) like this for each of your kids, on each and every birthday.

Great post.

These are the posts she’ll always be grateful for. And the posts that will help you remember the important details you’d otherwise forget.

It’s a beautiful post to a beautiful girl. Very happy birthday to her.

(And we were saying “any day but 7/6 – that’s George Bush’s birthday” but we got it anyway. Yep, our daughter has a great sense of humor.)
