"Life is just like an old time rail journey ... delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride." Gordon B. Hinckley

Happy 5th Birthday Maddy Mae


Maddy is 5 years old today! I had Maddy on our 1 year wedding anniversary, it was such a special day. I was in labor for 24 hours and the Dr. lost Maddy's heart rate and things were not doing so well. I was exhausted after being in labor for so long and my body or baby was not doing very well so the Dr. said she had to take Maddy C-section. It was a very rough C-section but after 24 long hours Maddy came into this world. She was a beautiful baby with lots of dark curly hair. Maddy spent 3 days in the NICU and it was a very scary experience for Josh and I. We loved her so much and held her all the time. She was a very sweet baby and brought so much joy into our lives and still does. I cannot believe she is 5 years old. Maddy loves to be a girly girl. She plays dress up, changes clothes at least 4 times most days, trys to do her own hair, paints her nails, plays with dolls and barbies, and is the cutest little mommy to her two sisters. Maddy is such a love able little girl and we love her so much. Happy birthday my little Maddy Mae!
