HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NATALIE!

Tomorrow is my middle child's birthday! She is ALSO the first GIRL!  NATALIE RUTH FRY (now HORNE)! 
It's true, there are moments from every birth that you remember so vividly. Natalie's was no exception. I so remember, like it was yesterday,  holding my breath to hear what the doctor was going to say as she came out. "IT'S A ....................." longest millisecond in history!!!!!! "IT'S A......................GIRL!" I let my breath out and then, did what every GIRL does when happy. I cried. and then, whispered, "thank You, God". and I've thanked Him every day since.

So, happy birthday: dear, precious, beautiful, talented, funny, crazy, daughter of mine. That day was one of my most memorable and every day since then, with you in my life.I love you with all I have within me.
