we are celebrating my valentines day baby girl
who turned 18 today!!
savannah is in the midst of a four day celebration~
friday night was dinner at watershed & on to karaoke
with all her best girlfriends.
saturday evening was spent with a big group of friends.
tonight she'll celebrate her birthday & valentines with her sweetie,
but yesterday was our day.
we headed out to chow baby
to enjoy a yummy stir fry lunch after church,
a quick drive downtown, a few impromptu photos,
& then back home for gifts
madison, of course, whipped her up a yummy cake
thank goodness i have my own personal martha!
when i was young i always hoped i'd have a daughter
maybe even four
sort of like my own little women
i knew i wanted a little girl named after one of my favorite southern cities.
i love this child of mine
i do
i love everything about her
she is everything i dreamed of
i'm working on a special letter for her
but every single time i begin to think what i want to say
i start to cry....
until then
happy birthday sweet child of mine!!

Happy Birthday to your Sweet Savannah! That is one of my favorite cities as well, I lived there for 4 years when I was younger. Any chance your daugher could give fashion advice...actually any of them...they are all stunning!

{sorry that was kinda long}
So precious! Isn't it great to have a really special occasion to celebrate on Valentine's Day? It makes the day so much more substantial (and not so commercial).
You inspired me (through an email a few weeks ago) to share my engagement story. That's what makes my Valentine's Day special!
Happy 18 years of motherhood to you today, sweet Paige!
xo,
Linsey

She is just gorgeous! I love her style and wow did she make out with the gifts for her birthday! Can I be adopted? Happy Birthday to your lovely daughter!

What an awesome birthday, happy 18th to your baby!! I like how you captured her excitement!
I have a V-day baby too, but he just turned 8. :)
Happy Birthday!!! (Belated!!) Where can I get some adorable boots like your sweet sweet savannah? I love the Black Suede ones and the Tan ones with lacing in the back! I must have these!! Please share who they are by? :) You'd make my night!!!
You and your daughters are just gorgeous (or as we say in Savannah, "GAW-geous!"). Could you tell me what kind of camera and lens you use -- your shots look like they came from a magazine! Thanks!
