Happy 5th Birthday Ella!

Today, the one who finally made me a mother turned 5 years old! I know this does not seem like some big milestone to most, but I have been very emotional the past few days about this birthday. This past year with Ella has been so full of joy. She truly is such a joy to be around.

Despite the unseasonably chilly weather we had yesterday as well as the torrential down pour all day long, we had a wonderful birthday party with our little girl, family, and friends. We traded in the slip and slide and sprinklers for some arts and crafts. I'll have to post pictures of our Little Mermaid party another day, but for now, here is a little video montage of Ella's past year.

Sarah, what a beautiful compilation of her past year in photos! Ella is such a beautiful little girl, just like her mama! I don't blame you for feeling emotional, the feeling of finally knowing you're going to be a mom/become a mother is such a wonderful feeling! It's nice to take a trip down memory lane. I'm glad to hear your family enjoyed a wonderful party despite the rain! :)
