This past weekend we celebrated Olyvia Faith turning a year old and it was a BLAST! Jamie Lee did such a fantastic job decorating and making it as cute as possible. (which is no surprise) We had the party at the Sharon Community Center and there was such a great turn out. The place was filled with lots of giggles, squealing babies, and sweet fellowship with family and friends. It was so good to see everyone and just enjoy some time celebrating my precious niece.
It's hard to believe it has already been a year. Where has the time gone? When Olyvia was born she brought so much to our family. Robert and Jamie Lee are such great parents! As I have said before I was heart broke when Robert told me they were moving to LA because we had just found out that Jamie Lee was pregnant. Well Brooklynn already has two cousins that live far away and I thought this would be one more that we would never get to see or grow up with and of course that made me so sad. Robert promised me that would not be the case and he has made good on that promise. This past year we have all fallen in love with Lyv'. Brooklynn Rose loves her so much. She has always been attentive to her ever since she was born. The bond that those two girls have is something I cherish very much. When Olyvia sees Brooklynn her eyes light up and she gets the biggest smile on her face. She knows who Brooklynn is. She knows Brooklynn loves her and that is very important to me. Brooklynn only has one sibling and she never gets to see her and she does not even know she exists and that is heart breaking for me. When I was growing up my big brothers and my big sister meant the world to me. We are all still very close and that is something I wish Brooklynn could have. Well Lyvi is the next best thing. Brooklynn loves her like a sister and I know they will grow up and remain the best of friends! Robert and Jamie Lee are moving home soon and I couldn't be happier about that.
Olyvia Faith, you are so beautiful! You bring so much joy to our family and we love you very much! I can't wait to watch you grow up and enjoy every second I get to spend with you. Happy Birthday my Lyvi Love!
