Jessie and I both just looked at these pictures and murmured the words, "Beautiful." and "Miracle". She is smiling. My god. Jessie wants me to tell you how much it means to her that you and Sophie listen to the Cicada Ladies. All love...Mary
Elizabeth I am overjoyed. Sophie looks so very, very happy in the "And still, this:" photo. Such a beautiful smile, enjoying her family and her birthday and so visibly present with you all. Your kindness in sharing all of this has made an already wonderful day so much more special - Thank You!
Oh, she is lovely - how wonderful it is to see her smiling and laughing! The party looks as if it was fun, as well as pretty and delicious. Happy 19th to Sophie!
That's amazing, and beautiful! Seeing her smiling and responding and so much a part of the celebrations -- well, it's terrific. I love the look on Henry's face, too. You always capture the best expressions.
We watched Dallas Buyer's Club last night and almost the whole time, I thought of you and Sophie and all the families CBD can help and has helped. Sophie looks so happy. It does my heart good.
I love the heart-shaped candles! And the light - from the candles and Sophie - is just exquisite. That smile is heart-in-my-throat stuff. Happy, happy birthday!
Oh my goodness, the looks you captured on her face - they moved my heart! I LOVE that girl!! happiest of birthdays to sophie!! (ps, cake looked beautiful too!)
Her smiles make me smile. I see a little bit of victory on her face. Happy Birthday, again Sophie. And happiest of celebrations for you and the rest of your house Elizabeth!
Love.
