Carly's B-day Week

Crepes for breakfast, thoughtful gifts, a cousins' party, dance practice with Miss Amber...

What could be better?

We knew we were having another girl. We knew we wanted to name her Carly. I got teary eyed after she was born and the nurse brought her into me with a cute, little Christmas bow in her hair. It wasn't until then that we decided on her middle name, Noel. Look at her now, still as beautiful as ever. It's hard to believe at one time she fit into a stocking and in the middle of a wreath!

This year, she did her first dance solo on stage, and has taken off with reading. She is a very determined, talented child who knows what she wants and is aware of what other people might want, too.

We love you, Carly!
