Having a Daughter! {SOLC} March 22, 2015 #sol15

Today, my youngest child and only daughter turns 5!  Before Olivia was born, I was totally a boy mom!  In fact, when we decided to find out the sex of our third child before she was born, I was very skeptical when we found out we were having a girl!  I wasn't sure if I could be the best mom to a little girl because I already had the boy stuff figured out!  

Having a little girl was has been a tremendous blessing!  She completed our family of five!  I never realized how important it was not to be the only person in the house with a different perspective.  I also never realized how crazy it is to have someone else who is so much like me in the world.  

Olivia and I have so much fun together!  We enjoy spending time together: shopping, baking, scrapbooking, crafting and talking!  Olivia really is just like me in so many ways but her person as well.  While I love everything about being the mom of two amazing boys, having a daughter is very special too!  

Happy Birthday, Olivia Louisa!  Today, we celebrate the spunky, sassy princess that you are and all the joy you bring to our lives!

  3. Having a daughter is such a blessing to a mom. There may be a period of painfulness at around 11, but it passes, and the fun returns. Happy birthday to her!
