Happy Birthday my baby Charlotte pie. Even though child birth probably ruined my body for ever….and ever….and…oh, this is about YOU.

Charlotte, I am so happy you grew out of that ugly newborn stage and your head isn’t as lopsided as it was when you were born. I am so sorry I baked you wrong and your pinkies are crooked though. Maybe you can play a trumpet professionally! Silver Lining, Honey!

You have taught me that:

1) You grow out of cross eyes and gangly limbs

6) My life is full of princesses

7) Leaving…ANYTHING….is tragic
