hi there. We're still here. Where are you?

Dear PS2,

What a blessed 2011 we had.

Your dad arrived safely from his 3rd deployment to Afghanistan.



We celebrated your sister's 1st birthday.



Charley hit amazing milestones like learning how to walk (at 13 months), her first word (beside momma? "ruff ruff"), and now she is a true toddler: tantrums, babbling, and all. It's amazing to see her grow.



We thought it was time to start trying for you last summer, but we just weren't ready. We needed to time it with dad's upcoming 4th deployment and our pending moves. But I think we're ready...

I'm thinking of you.. And just as I told Charley..I love you even before your heart starts beating. We are constantly praying for you. 2012 is your year, kid.

love,
your momma
