HAPPY BIRTHDAY ZOIE!!! #5

My baby girl turns 5 on Tuesday. But I won't be there :( She will be with both grandparents, enjoy an afternoon at Jungleland with Arya, Vance & Breanna, and a dinner with Ty.

I can't believe it has been 5 years since I was suffering through back labor, 3 trips to the birth center, a morphine shot to make me loopy, many many doctors in the delievery room without any idea what was happening to my baby, then telling me that they didn't want the baby to breath, Zoie with breathing tubes in the baby ICU, Ty visiting after he finished his shifts at Draft Pics & helping Zoie learning to breath, taking her home to meet the puppies, and so much more.

Zoie is a wonderful daughter! And a great big sister to Vance and Arya. She is so helpful even though she can be snotty with bossy pants. She loves to snuggle in our bed. I can't imagine one day without her which makes this work trip even harder.

I love you Zoie!!!

Carrie, these are precious thoughts and pix of three of my favorite children. I think we helped Zoie start her birthday on a happy note. Yes, she is a special girl and she knows you love and miss her. I have a few new pix up for you to view.

It's so fun to read your blog and know what you're up to Carrie. Happy Birthday to Zoie. I thought of her all day on our "shared" birthday. She is very special and a delightful young lady. We love her very much.
