HAPPY BIRTHDAY RILEY


November 23, 1999 our lives changed forever. Boy.....Girl??? we didn't know. God sure did know just what and WHO we needed in our lives..............you Riley. I can't believe your 9, you are such a sweet young lady. You have so many wonderful qualities, and there are so many things to love about you. I'll never forget that day you made me a mom, all my dreams came true. I'll also never forget taking you home from the hospital on Thanksgiving day, as I sat beside you in the back seat I took my eyes off of you for just a second to look out the window and see a church sign that simply said, "Give Thanks"...................and that's what I think of when I think of you.............Thank you God!

I still remember coming to see you when Riley was just a week or so old, oohing & aahing over your sweet baby girl while I rubbed my belly. I was just a couple months away from having Samuel. Happy Birthday Riley girl!

I did not know that Riley and Luke share the samae birthday. I remember bringing him home from the hospital on Thanksgiving Day, too - 9 years ago! That is hard to believe that we have 9 year old kiddos. Hope all is well in Tyler - we miss seeing everyone there. Happy Thanksgiving!
