My Darling Hannah~
You are my swan. It is such a treasure to be your mom. I love you to the moon and back again. I can’t believe that you are already turning 12! It seems just yesterday that you were spitting up in my hair, toddling around barefoot because you wouldn’t keep shoes on, coloring on the walls, and cutting your own hair! Now you are a young lady who has the gift of being a talented artist and an amazing writer ~ I can’t wait to see where you go over the next 12 years!
I love you best, I love you most, I love you high, I love you low, I love you deep, I love you wide… I love you, I love you, I love you…….. this much!
XXOO
Happy Birthday!
