Happy 23rd Birthday Caitlin

There are very few pictures of us together when Caitlin was little, mainly because I was behind the lens all the time, and I hated my picture being taken back then. I regret this now, and this is one of the few photos that we have of us together. She must have been a little over a year old in this photo.
She was born at 4:55 am on a beautiful Sunday morning. Quick, but painful back labor of 4 hours, and she came out almost with an annoyed look on her face, as if to say, what am I doing here. The minute I laid eyes on her, I knew she was an old soul.
Constantly at my side as a little one, she was always a quiet little kid. Playing with her toys and drawing in her room. She has grown up to be a wonderful lovely woman, and her dad and I are so proud of all she has done and who she has become.
Happy Birthday sweetheart, we love you more than words can express!
