this pic made me smile...as if annie was saying, "happy birthday aunt maggie!!!"

when i think back over the last year i know we didn't get to actually see you all the time. Living so far apart (i honestly don't know another person who has lived on both coasts in one years time...pretty amazing:)) obviously made that difficult. but i will forever be grateful for the times i did get to see your beautiful face. i will never ever forget that day after annie was born i was still in the hospital, annie in the NICU and who walks in my hospital room....my gorgeous sister maggie from soooo many many miles away. it was honestly a completely horrible day up to that point. I still don't know fully how you made it to oklahoma...it honestly almost felt magical in the moment when you walked in. i just remember being so upset and having what felt like the hardest day of my life and seeing your face was like God saying, "i'm taking care of everything, its all going to be ok." and that is exactly what you kept saying to me as i was sobbing and you were hugging me, "its going to be ok. its going to be ok." mags, im teary even writing this....being surrounded by my sisters in that moment was so comforting and i really actually felt GOd give me strength in those moments. i just want you to know how grateful i am for you. thanks for coming all the way to Norman that day in May, for hugging me, praying for me, comforting me and always loving me so much. i love you. how thankful i am to be your sister. i think you are awesome. i love your heart. i love how you are so passionate and put your whole heart into everything you do. i love how you are soooo much fun and full of life!

i pray Heaven's abundant blessings over you today.

we love love love you xoxoxox
