Seporah,    

    As your Mom and I worked on finishing this first year site, we went through all of the pictures we have taken of you this last year.  It’s amazing to remember how small you once were and how much you depended on us.  Now you are your own little person and running around and jabbering our ears off and definitely knowing what you like and what you don’t like.  It has been wonderful watching you grow up and teaching you and taking care of you.  I’ve learned a lot from you, things that we learn as children your age, but often forget.  You never quit getting up when you fell down learning to walk, and now you are a pro.  It is easier to smile through our tears than we think it is.  I love you and look forward to many more years of teaching you, learning from you, and watching you become your own person.
