Dear Annabelle:
Thank you for being my baby, and for making me a mother. You are the reason I love being a mother, and you are the joy of my life. When I was pregnant I was so excited for all that your little soul would bring to our family: the laughs, smiles, adventures, and challenges. I thought long and hard, during those long third-trimester nights, about what you'd look like, and how your presence might change our lives. Well as you've probably guessed, I couldn't have possibly imagined how adorable and amazing you would be; you have surpassed all of my greatest expectations. I am even beginning to see glimpses of myself in you: certain tones you use when saying things, the way you try to put on make-up, how much you LOVE clothes, your preference for healthier foods, your ability to sleep in, and how much you love being outside! I can also see a tiny glimpse of daddy in you: mess after mess after mess :) Ha ha
Becoming a mother is everything I hoped it would be and so much more! You are the greatest gift I have ever received from my Heavenly Father, and I promise I will keep you close to Him. Thank you for giving my life so much meaning and fulfillment. Thank you for all the wrinkly-nose smiles, loves, cuddles, kisses, and for being my baby. Mommy loves you sooooo much!

You're such a cutie yourself. I just love Miss Annabelle! Saw her with your mom at the park the other day and BOY has she gotten big! What happens to them? You're a great Mom and I'm sure Annabelle will read this years from now and tear up thinking about how lucky she is to have you!
I can't believe how big she has gotten! You know, I remember seeing you at Brady's wedding just before you had her... It doesn't seem like that long ago, and now she is almost 2! You are such a fabulous mother, and every post you have put up lately has cemented that in my head! Good job, mama! She is one lucky girl to have you!
That is such a sweet post. She is a doll!
Robyn, I love how much you cherish being a mom. You don't take one moment for granted. Annabelle is so blessed to have you a her mother.
Robyn that was beautiful. You have the perfect little girl. She is amazing and wonderful and gorgeous and so much stinking fun. I love her to death. You a wonderful mother. Both Annabelle and Josh are lucky to have you!
