May 23rd - I can't believe that it is here again already. Each year seems to go by faster and faster and my little baby just grows up, matures, becomes a young lady. For the last few years, we have been in Durango for Rachael's birthday. She helps at a bike race, has Dave Towle telling everyone it is her birthday. Goes to her favorite restaurant, opens presents in a hotel room.
Every year I wake up and remember her birth, 5 weeks early, so worried about having my baby so early. But she was such a small, perfect baby, she brought so much love to our family. It was great to watch the older kids with her. They all love her so much. Beth thought it was great fun to take Rachael in a stroller and go shopping. Steven would hold her with such a beautiful smile on his face. Jessica was the "little mom" always wanting to help with her. Carla was the patient one, when Rachael was crying, Carla could just keep walking with her. David always wanted to play with her. Rachael is so lucky to have her five older sisters and brothers.
So as we wish her a Happy Birthday, here are some pictures of the Rachael that we all know and love.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Baby girl!
