My Birthday Girl


My dear, sweet Vivienne Claire! You are now seven years old, and I remember the day you were born as if it were yesterday. It was quite a tale, since you hurried into the world so quickly! (Here is the whole story!) What a beautiful birth. You have know who you are since the day you were born, learning, creating  and growing with such will and strength. I love you, little one. You may not be so little now, but always my sweet Vivi you will be. Blessings on your year! So much wonder and splendor to come. XOXO  ~mama





Also wishing little James Patrick a Happy Birthday! With love and Congratulations to Genevieve and Bobby!

OOOoohh my Lord!! I haven't seen this post. Just by coincidence I scrolled down and saw this one.
Please can I say Happy Birthday eventhough I'm terribly late.
Beautiful words, I feel them! Now I'm off to read the whole story. Again, Happy B-Day from Italy for your beautiful daughter. (Love the wooden puzzle B-day cake with candles. love it love it!!)

(after having breakfast with my family I read the whole story). Oh, soo beautiful, sooo beautiful. I got really emotional here.
I read the Papa story to my husband( the part about the car is simply adorable). What a beautiful, loving family you are. Bravo!! XXX,C.
