"May blessings fall upon you wherever life's journey takes you."
Where did the years go, between this photo....
...and this one? It just doesn't seem possible that all those years have already flown by....
Wasn't your first birthday just yesterday???
And wasn't it just yesterday that you were running to me for comfort when you were afraid?
You only missed being a St. Patty's baby by 5+ hours! But you'll always be our "Wee Falorey Man" (the song you sang regularly, much to the delight of all your Irish relatives!!)
You always loved to make people laugh. Nana would call you her "little comedian"...
... to which you'd reply, "I am not a comidgion." But you soooooo are a comidgion!!!
You're also a true Pisces, my little water baby...
You loved our trips to the Cape....
... and made some acquaintances that you'll never forget!!
Here you are in March of 1994 with the love of your life, your handsome Spotty (a wee lad of 7 months when this photo was taken)... He was your boy then...
... and he's your boy now... Just look at you two, all grown up....

I am so looking forward to this weekend when you'll be home from college to celebrate your birthday!!! Save room for all of your favorites - a corned beef and cabbage dinner with carrot 'birthday' cake for dessert!! Till then...
Happy Birthday, honey!!!!!!!!!!!
Love, Mumsy

Aww! Your post brought tears to my eyes. Makes me want to go wake up my babies (who were just screaming about going to bed an hour ago) just so I can hug and squeeze them. I hope to slow down each day and cherish all of the time I have with my kids while they are still little. Your daughter is just lovely! And she was an adorable baby! :)
Awww very sweet mom!Yes where does the time go? Happy 20th Birthday-Picese Rock!Enjoyed the adorable photos too!~Smiles~Tam!
Your daughter is so pretty! Just like her mommy!
I love the photo of her and the kitty both when she was little and now. How sweet!
Tell her Happy Birthday from me!

What a lovely and sweet post! My favorite picture is the second one, where she has her sweet little chubby baby arms lifted over her head! She turned out to be a very beautiful young lady! Have a wonderful birthday celebration this weekend!
They grow up sooo fast! Your daughter is beautiful! Such a lovely tribute to her.
What a lovely post! I too, wonder where the years have gone with my children. Isn't it fun to re-visit their childhood photos!
Your daughter is beautiful and I'm sure you'll have a great birthday time together!
Hope all of you have a lovely birthday celebration this weekend! (Spotty, too.)

Happy Birthday to your beautiful daughter, Donna!
There certainly are days, and weeks, and phases, you think will never end, but looking back on the years it really does seem to go too quickly. Before you know it your daughter will have her own family. Now there's a thought for you! lol! Look at Spotty! Wow, has he grown up too!
Hope the two of you celebrate in a special way : )

My baby turns twenty-six on March 22, so you will probably see my birthday post for her on my blog. Where does the time go? It seems like I was just twenty-six! L.O.L.
Happy birthday to your babe!
