But... Charli is 1! It's very exciting and all, but... How can it be? A whole year? So fast? How? *sniffle* Where did it go?
I am so grateful for this blog. Not only does it keep us in touch with distant family and friends (and thank you all for your support and advice - we really appreciate it, even if we don't say so every time), but it allows me to go back and see pictures and remember things that happened and things we did and the things you all said about it. It's absolutely priceless and if Google weren't already making about a billion dollars a day, I would feel like I should send them some money.
Now I should really go to bed. I'm sure it will be a long day tomorrow. I hope I don't end up looking at Charli's baby pictures all night, from back when she was just a little bundle in our arms, and she used to sleep with us, and it was so cuddly, and she had no eyelashes or eyebrows, and all her hair stuck straight out... Can you tell? I'm looking at pictures already...

Happy Birthday Charli!
I'll always remember it's her birthday, because she had the good sense to be born on mine.
I look at you an Charli, and see how concerned and careful you look. Then I think about the "time out" and reflect on the year and how everyone has changed. The parents are more experienced and doing great!! Charli is becoming a perfect child by testing the limits.
I have to weigh in on the side of discipline on this one. I must point out, however, that discipline is the total responsibility of the parents. The grandparents have no role in this. As far as I am concerned, Charlli does no wrong.
I hope you all enjoy the celebration of Charli's first year. We are doing that from afar. She is, indeed, a gift to all of us.
Happy Birthday, Charli! Wishing you warm wishes from the cold east coast.
Go Cats!
Peace & Love,
Us
To those of us who aren't even part of your family, this blog is a great blessing. Charli and her parents and relatives are a great gift to the rest of us who happen to visit your blog from time to time. It will be a blessing to see your daughter grow in the years to come. Keep the blogging up... after you dry your tears!
