At 11:43 a.m. one year ago Margaret Belle was born. We cannot believe a whole year has passed. Last year at this time we were holding on to hope that Margaret's lungs would continue to develop in NICU and that the Lord would give her the strength to keep thriving. All of our prayers were answered. Not only did she leave the NICU sooner than predicted she now weighs almost five times more than when she was born and is more than a foot longer.
Miss Moo is also healthy in spirit. She seems to be an old soul, very pensive. You just see those wheels turning, and it makes you wonder what is she thinking. She has a great little chuckle that she shares when she finds something comical, and her smile lights up every room. Lately she loves to sing and point at objects and say "da"; everything is "da". She also loves exploring, always very curious to how things work and what they do.
Wade and I are so blessed to have such a beautiful daughter. Enjoy this video we made to celebrate her first year!

Beautiful tribute to a beautiful little girl. We are so blessed to have Miss Margaret and her parents in our lives. Happy Birthday, Sweet Girl! We love you!!!!
Love love love the video! What a year it's been! Margaret, you are one blessed little girl... :)
Happy Birthday, Sweet Margaret!
Melissa, I've loved looking through this. Margaret is gorgeous and I hope to meet her some time! She is doing so well, I know you must be so relieved for her to be hitting all her milestones on time. Heck, Kate wasn't even a preemie and Margaret's way ahead of her - Kate didn't crawl until 19 mos and has just taken her first steps and is about to be 2!!! Oh well, they all do things in their own time, and aside from the concern, Kate's delays have made her easier - I don't have to chase her around much! Thanks for sharing all of this!
The boys and I loved watching the video today! We can't believe you are 1 Miss Moo! We love you so very much!

Dear little Margaret,
You are so precious and such a joy to all of us. We can't believe you are one year old now. We love you so very much. Mama Susie and Daddaddy
