On 4 Years
Tomorrow we celebrate 4 years of Lucia Louise, affectionately and endearingly known as 'Lulu'.
Tomorrow we celebrate 4 years of beauty, tenderness, graciousness, tenacity, and authenticity.
Tomorrow Lulu celebrates pink, ponies, chicken, letters, whipped cream, balloons, kitties, and lace.
Tomorrow I celebrate more love, stronger love, desperate love.
Tomorrow I celebrate the guidance that a broken heart and a contrite spirit bring.
Tomorrow I celebrate passion, passion for advocacy, consciousness, and charity.
Tomorrow, I celebrate 4 years of blessedness.

i wish i could keep your brain in my pocket, so when i want to think like this but am way too exhausted to do so, i could just whip it out and exchange it for my own.
honestly. i love how you think and how you write.
happy bday little loo. here's to more adventurous development!!
yeah for four year olds!
they just keep getting older and older and we keep loving them and loving them more...isn't that crazy?
This made me weep. I echo what andrea said. And what a love Lulu is.
What a heartfelt tribute for your beautiful girl.
Your writing is poetic.
I think you just said what most all us mommy bloggers want to say, but don't have the talent to put it the way you do. Beautiful. Happy Birthday Lulu.
Made me cry too. I sure do love that little girl! Very much! Happy Birthday LULU!
I love you too Martha! Your writing is always so evocative, wonderfully simple and honest...all things a admire and envy =)
I love your "passion for advocay"
Miss you like crazy!
Hug LuLu for me PLEASE! I wish I could be there!
Four years! Do you remember sitting, pregnant in the rain, at the Lehi rodeo - you with Lulu and me with Calvin? I can hardly believe it was four years ago.
She is lovely. I hope things are going well and that she is progressing. It's interesting how the love of a special needs child is so fierce. It's not more, just different. It's so crazy that our kiddos get bigger and grow and there is nothing we can do to stop it. :-)
She's a real beauty. Like everyone has said you are an amazing writer and express things in a way I never could. Happy Birthday LuLu. By the way it looks like next Friday at 10am will work for at least Rachael and I so let's plan on it. I'll call you.
YEAH! You are back!!! I've missed you!
