{First Born}

My father once told me that he didn't love me the most, he didn't love one of us more than the others, but he had loved me the longest.
I loved that. It made me feel so important to him.
I feel the same way about my Sydney.
I've loved her the longest.
She made me a mother and Nick a father.
All of our parenting hiccups have occurred on her watch, but also every 'first' came with her as well.
She is one of most beautiful young ladies I know. Inside and out. I feel like to be a first born in some ways you have to be stronger than the rest to follow. A lot of responsibility falls on the oldest's shoulders. As much as she struggles with this challenge, she also surprises me with her poise and maturity.
I am sure my Heavenly Father sent me Sydney first for many reasons.
I adore her.
I cherish her.
Oh, how I LOVE her!!!!!

Over the weekend we took a day to spend, just the 2 of us. We shopped for the perfect outfits for her birthday shoot. And we shot some of my favorite pictures of her EVER. 11 years went by when I blinked.
