Happy Birthday Princesa!

So you are six years old today. WOW! Exactly 6 years ago to this minute you were still 3 hours and 8 minutes away from being born but you were certainly already a presence. As I writhed around delirious from labor pain (I would fall asleep and snore for 30 seconds at a time in between contractions!) I could not wait for you to be born. We did not know if you were a boy or a girl but we knew that we loved you and wanted you with all of our heart. Now you are a sassy 6 year old, covered in hives (pobrecita), ready to do almost anything without my help. Growing up is hard for you but it is also hard for me. I love you more than you can ever know until you have your own kids. Happy Birthday Frupaloop!
