Dear Baby K,

Someday, I’ll tell you all about the glory days. I’ll recount the endless adventures of your mom and me. Of a casual 22nd birthday/almost wedding in NYC, of beach chairs and cerveza, of the Shang and “LP’s.” I will try my best to tell you just how cool your Dad is, and how he has loved your mom since pretty much forever. I will tell you all about your parents wedding, how beautiful your mom looked, about being over-served at the rehearsal (naturally), and about a certain “surfboard” entrance. I will tell you about the day we learned you were on the way. How happy your mom and dad were when they told the “aunties” you were a girl, and all about the winter night when you finally arrived. Someday, you will understand just how loving, loyal, and fun your parents really are.

Someday…I will tell you this and more. But for now, I will simply enjoy watching you grow:) Here is the happy little girl of Jenn and Mike, all decked out for her Christmas card, with not one but two fabulous outfits…
