Two dozen years ago this morning, we were blessed with our own Christmas miracle. A child born, a daughter joyfully received! The birth announcement said “Our love made flesh” and told the world our joy of starting our own family!
Although, you weren’t due until January 7th, I always knew in my heart you were going to be born on Christmas or Christmas Eve. Sure enough, at 12:58am on December 24th, attended by Gramma Sanna and your Daddy, you made your debut into this world, bright eyed and alert. We enjoyed Gramma’s help and company for a week, while the rest of the family in Lake Oswego postponed their Christmas celebration until she went home on New Year’s Eve.
Happy Birthday, Sirita! You’ve grown into a talented, caring and beautiful woman! I love spending time with you, whether we are sewing, crafting, cooking or just talking. You are a huge blessing in my life and I continue to thank God for you each and every day!
