Happy 4th birthday, my little sunshine!

It’s hard to believe it’s been 4 years since Amelia came into our lives. She brought light, and heat, and energy and everything that the sun brings. And joy, so much joy! She’s our burning star, our well of energy ( and the biggest way we spend the energy for that matter). She’s like nothing I ever imagined, it just shows how little I know of the divine power.
When I was pregnant with her I kept seeing pictures of a little girl, also named Amelia, also blonde, blue eyed and with a naughty smile. I remember so well deeply admiring that girl and while not admitting, being a little disheartened that she’s not mine. And few months passed by and I got my own Amelia, thousand times better, thousand times more loving, smarter, and more beautiful.

This amazing little girl turned 4 during the COVID quarantine. I was sad to not be able to give her a big party, like she deserves, and how I wanted to spend my overflowing love. She misses the kids and she definitely misses her old life. But we did get to spend the whole day together, and she played and she loved her presents.

We decorated the house with her, she kept on telling us she wants to decorate for weeks before her birthday. We made a cake for her and she participated, as she also requested to be involved in cake decorating. Her birthday fell on Monday but we started celebrating on Friday. Sunday she had her actual party, with all presents and the attention. She did not allow anyone to sing Happy Birthday, her shy side is showing quite a bit.

On Monday, her actual birthday, she got more presents. She played with Cati so much! I believe she was happy. We went outside and she blew bubbles with Cati. They loved each other and filled me with happiness. Happy birthday sunshine! May your light and happiness only grow bigger and brighter.!
