My One-Year-Old Daughter and Me
Denise was born on a beautiful sunny day, just like today. She decided to show up three weeks before her due date of July 6th. Born at Carbonear Hospital, she was the smallest baby there at the time, weighing a dainty five pounds, seven ounces.
My life as a very young mother had begun!

Denise was a happy child, but she was also softhearted, intelligent, and focused.
Bachelor of Nursing Graduate
She always worked hard to realize her goals.
Her Beautiful Family
Happy Birthday, Denise! I am so proud of you, and can’t imagine my life without you in it!
Love Mom ❤

What a lovely post! I have a daughter who just received her bachelor’s degree in nursing; and I know it probably won’t be long before she starts her own life and family, too. Life goes by so quickly. It’s such a blessing to live in modern times, when we can preserve these moments on our blogs, cherish and share them forever.
This year I have embarked on a virtual quest to discover a new positive blog every day, keeping a list on my own site for reference. I’ve added your blog as today’s entry because it is so peaceful and loving. 🙂

Life does indeed go by quickly; I can’t believe my grandchildren are growing up so fast! My blog will give them a history to look back on in the years to come.
I am glad you found my post to be uplifting. Please drop by again!

Jennifer, this brought tears to my eyes. This is a beautiful post by a loving mother. Our daughter wasn’t born early, but she was a lovely and unplanned surprise after our two dear sons.
