Happy Birthday Madeline!

Today is a very special day, for a special little girl that came into our lives three years ago today! My best friend Kate's daughter is precious to me for many reasons, so we are celebrating her extraordinary life today! Sigh. Why do they all have to grow up so fast?! Here's a little photo-tribute to Kate & Dan's beautiful girl on the day I first met her, about 3 weeks after she was born.

My first meeting with this little bird. Sigh.
