Jillene’s Blog: Crawling, In A Flash

A year can crawl by… and flash before our eyes. It’s one of life’s many paradoxes.

I took a long 4th of July week/weekend to celebrate the last year. My niece, June, officially turned one and I wanted to be there to celebrate. Things were obviously different this year and we didn’t get to have the big birthday party we thought we would. But it worked out for me because that meant I didn’t have to share her with as many people. I have become completely obsessed with this little girl! Over the last year, she has made my heart grow in ways I never knew it could. She’s shown me joy and happiness without being able to communicate with words. I am so excited to continue making memories with her! I’ll never forget the first time I met her… seeing how much she’s grown in this last year has me realizing how quickly time can go by. At the same time, I don’t even remember life without her a short year ago.

If you have a special kid in your life, I’d love to hear about them. Find me on Facebook or email me at Jillene@magic98.com! Here are a couple pictures of me and my niece (and one of her and her dad, my brother, who’s birthday is the day after hers! He’s getting used to sharing his day with her)…
