Four
25th February 2010
Hard to believe my Lucy is turning four on Saturday. We stuffed her handmade loot bags this afternoon.
I was just holding her in my arms as she struggled, giggling, calling her my big baby.
I talked into her hair because I was tearing up. The face looking up at me used to be so wee, and for a split second she was the babe from years ago.
We have a small cake n’ ice cream get together Saturday with our family, and a kids party Sunday with seven little friends.
She is vibrating with excitement.
I am so thrilled with the charming little girl she is growing into. But a little sad, too.
Photos, details and a letter on Monday.

Awww – happy birthday Lucy! She is such a gorg little girl – can’t wait to read the letter! 4 seems so old (and far) away for me – but I know it will be here before I know it…
Cameron just turned two in January. The time goes by so fast – my only complaint as a mother! Guess we just have to enjoy it as it whizzes by
Happy Birthday Lucy!
I am totally with you ladies on this…. though my sweet Olivia is only 19 months old she is already “too big” to have Mommy help her with things. We toured a daycare yesterday and I’m pretty sure I could have left her there all day and she wouldn’t have noticed I was gone! I vaguely remember the early sleep-deprived months where I wished she would just get old enough to sleep through the night and now I wish I could hold my newborn again – all snuggled up on Mommy’s chest.
Happy birthday, Lucy!
So sweet Carly.
Happy Birthday to your Lucy!! The thought of this makes me tear up, my oldest will be three in May, I feel the same way!!
