Lily's Birthday presents

Happy Birthday to me

We celebrated mine and Lily's birthday's last week. We were lucky enough to have my mom at our house for our birthdays. It was so great to see her again. We had so much fun. We went to the Roy aquatic center . Lily's quite the little fish. She loved being in the water. We also went and saw Toy Story 3. It was Lily's first movie. It was also the first movie I'd seen in a theater in 4 years. Lily sat through the entire movie, and Benny slept through the whole thing. It was great! Then we went to Friday's to celebrate. The next day we saw Jimmy and had pizza at Pier 49. Then on Sunday when my mom and Jimmy went home, we celebrated mine and Lily's birthdays with Brian's parents. It was quite the birthday extravaganza! I loved it.

Lily Aurora Bauer

To my daughter,
You've taught me more about love than I could ever imagine. You gave me a glimpse of how God loves His children. I never knew I could love another person so much. You taught me mercy. I wasn't married when I had you, and nothing more could've taught me to have mercy on myself, and to learn to not judge others like I had in the past.
I named you Lily because Christ is known as the Lily of the Valley, beauty of the world. Just like the David Ruis song
"Lily of the valley, bright and morning star
Fairest of ten thousand, you are
How can I perceive Your beauty, I long to see your face
Jesus"
I want you to know you are loved as Christ loves us.
I also named you Aurora. Aurora has many meanings to me. It means dawn, light in darkness. You were my light in a dark time in my life. You were also my light at the end of a difficult labor that could've claimed our lives.
I love you Lily. I'm so glad you changed my life. I'm so glad I have you in my life. You are a blessing. You are loved beyond imagination.

Happy Birthday Lily!
