On Saturday, we celebrated two special years with our little girl. I've given a lot of thought over the last few days as to the best way to commemorate that day on this blog. And I'm not quite sure I have reached a decision. But every time I think about what to write about what having Annie in our family has meant to me and to David, the words of Annie's current favorite song come to mind. I think because in their simplicity, these words capture the very essence of what she brings to our lives. I know it sounds sappy. I know it sounds cheesy. I know it sounds very rainbows and unicorns and fairy dust. But it's true. Annie is our sunshine...and there's no better time to say it out loud then on a special occasion like a birthday.
"You Are My Sunshine"
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are gray.
You'll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don't take
My sunshine away.
We love you, sunshine...our sweet Annie Cakes. We can't wait to continue this family journey with you.
