Our sweet little baby girl is one. PREPOSTEROUS! Seriously, how could this be? I just gave birth to her like, two months ago or something. But they tell me that these things called "calendars" are pretty reliable so I guess it's true. Just thinking about it is making me cry because I will miss baby Willa so much. Parenthood is nothing if not incessant loss. All the changes are so welcome and so wonderful but they come with a dear price. Still, I can't wait for the next year and the next and the next. Happy Birthday, darling Willa. A hundred happy returns.
