two years ago today, our lives forever changed. two years ago today, our faith was put to the ultimate test. two years ago today, our hearts were simultaneously filled with more fear and more love than anyone could ever imagine. two years ago today, at 9:48 and 9:49 a.m., lyncoln journey and quinn journey entered this big world at only 25w4d gestation. two weeks ago today, we learned that miracles are real.
my darling lu,
every single day with you is an adventure. you are strong-willed and gentle. you are such a sly little spryte, but you have the biggest heart. you love to run amuck and to get your own way. but you are the first one to help out someone who is hurt or sad. i love your spirit, lu. i love to hear your sweet little voice ooohhh and ahhhh and wow at the christmas lights as we drive by. i love to hear you sing and to read stories and name body parts. i love your all-out belly laughs and the sheepish way that you stick your tongue out when you are being shy. i love how you cling to us with your body hugs and how you aren't too afraid to try new things.
you are a wonderment, my darling girl. happy 2nd birthday!

my sweet quinnie,
in all my life, i have never encountered someone as beautiful as you. your free-spirited nature is a gift that i am honored to witness. you have a playful personality and a love of all creatures. your delicate feelings get hurt easily, but that is just a testament to your tender heart. you dance through life in your sing-song fashion, and you gather many sticks and rocks and other baubles along the way. you like things a certain way, and you aren't afraid to let others know when something isn't "right." you have declared yourself a princess to the world, and you make sure that everyone knows good and well that you mean it! your tears are enough to melt the coldest of hearts, and your smile is bright enough to illuminate the darkest of days.
you are a wonderment, my sweet girl. happy 2nd birthday!
