My Abby....Where do I start? There are so many things that make Ab unique and special. When Abby was a toddler, her pediatrician would comment, "That Abigail is unique." He was right then and now. I know, looking back, that Abby was given to me first to be my rock. She has gotten me through some of my toughest moments, and her faith and sense of depth have never wavered. Abby is extremely perceptive of people's feelings and notices everything. The thing I admire most about Abby is her ability to let what other's think of her roll off her shoulders. When something happens to her, she is sad a minute, but lets it go and forgives very quickly. She doesn't take it personally. I am continually learning from her.
Her actual birthday falls over the dates when we will be in Texas attending Deak's Chromosome 18 conference. Ab even has to share her birthday with Deakon, and she is okay with it. Today she and I had a fun day together eating lunch at Arby's, getting her toes and fingers painted, and shopping at Target. I love hanging out with her, and hope she always wants to hang out with me.
Tonight we are going to celebrate with family bowling and opening presents. Abby's number one wish this birthday is to get an ipod. She really is 16 stuck in a tiny little body.
Happy Birthday my girl.
