sisters.
We are going to Orcas Island to celebrate the first birthday of my baby girl which happens to be tomorrow. My journal is filled with a recipe of words in her honor, words I have been scribbling between school drop offs and swiping small craft beads from then babies mouth. Until I share them, a moment here where Sula is explaining to Z what she can do as a one year old, you can jump on the grass from dada’s ladder and eat Q-tips…here try one… and your bones can crack and then jewels will fall out of them and you also can have some salmon. Wise words, Sister Sula. Happy almost birthday litte Dove.

My heart melts with warmth thinking of your beautiful, wonderful family celebrating Z’s first birthday. Happy Birthday, special girl!!
