My firstborn ….

baby is now officially an adult! Sarah celebrated her 18th birthday on January 16th!

She chose an ice cream cake.
(Yes, that’s a seven with the end chopped off, so what of it, I didn’t have a one and I had to improvise!)

Her childhood friend from New York came to visit:

(Huge deep sigh.) The years go by all too quickly. I had just turned 18 when she was born. It just went by so fast. I still remember snuggling in bed with her when she was a newborn. Everyone told me I was spoiling her and I just didn’t care. I couldn’t let her sleep all alone in a cold bassinet!! Lots of good memories. Lots. Love you Sarah.

    She’s so gorgeous! I love hearing bits and pieces of moms to older kids who “spoiled” their children, it makes me feel totally justified in still letting Robby sleep with us :D Your tea party looks so fun!
