The Turnings

My Girls,
You will turn one tomorrow, Pita. Where has that one whole year vanished? I can tell you. It's in my heart. There are too many moments to count and recall to say something so simple, and so I will just say it now, I love you. I remember that first moment you laid on my chest after you were delivered. What relief. What happiness. What wonder to come. Thank you, God, for our beautiful girl.
My Madge, you turn three in less than three weeks. You know it too! You always say, "I'll be three. My birthday is July 17th." How many awesome moments I share with you. Our times together in Beijing, in Hawaii, traveling, those precious moments together. They're all shared. You are my beauty, my big helper, my Madge-Pie. Happy pre-birthday!
