Sweetness!
This daughter of mine has stolen my heart. Although this weekend hasn't all been cuddles and kisses (Have you ever been around a one year old who is teething?) it has made my heart fall even deeper in love with my baby girl.

Love it!! Always feel exactly what you are talking about. . . .just a few more minutes of nap time Isaac and mom would get a few extra winks.
