Happy Birthday, My Catie



She's 3-years-old today. THREE.  My god, I can't believe she's 3 already.  The years have gone by so fast...too fast. 

I wouldn't use the word "favorite" exactly, because that's not fair to my other kids, or even true.  But she has been such a joy to me since the day she was born.  Maybe because she was the baby, and I knew she was my last, maybe I was wise enough to treasure her for the unexpected gift that she was.  That she is. 

It's so amazing to watch her grow.  Right now her little 3-year-old self is just a glimpse of some unique person I can only imagine.  And although I can't wait to see who that person will eventually be, I wish I could slow these years down just a little.
