That slide show and song pretty much sums it up. This time last year I was in HARD labor ready to bring my daughter into the world. I've already gotten emotional twice today and it's only noon. What's up with that? From what I hear first birthdays are hard on moms because we have to face that we'll never get those "baby" moments back. Some of those baby moments I'm fine letting go of- the sleepless nights, the smileless first few months.
But I still cherish the past year as the best year of my life so far. Everyday she gets more and more fun, but with that more and more independent and it's bittersweet sometimes. I can't even express how much my heart has grown and what she has taught me about myself without even being able to speak. Parenthood has been incredibly challenging, but incredibliy rewarding in the same moment.
So here's to you Arden Joan Drenzek- I love you, your daddy loves you, your family and lots of friends love you!
Happy Birthday little one- you will always be my baby.

I had a question for you. Do you use cloth diapers? One of my friends is thinking about it and was wondering if it was a lot of work. I thought I remembered you saying that you were going to use them. If not just disregard this. Arden is just adorable and you did a wonderful job decorating for her party. Like you said it is cliche but it goes by SO fast! Enjoy!
