Becca is my baby girl and has always been a beautiful child, well..... except for those first couple of days.
When Becca was born, they had to use forceps to get her out (she was a very large baby - almost 10 pounds) and it caused her head to have corners (I swear she looked like an alphabet block!). When I first saw her I cried (I didn't know that her head would round out in a couple of days - all I knew was that her head was square...).
My mother-in-law was the secretary in the church I grew up in and when she came into the room and talked about what a beautiful baby Becca was, I cried more. She had never lied to me before. Finally one of the nurses told me that it wasn't permanent and she would be fine in a couple of days. Boy, was I relieved!
With the exception of a few Kodak moments, she turned out really well, if I do say so myself!

She has grown up to be a beautiful young woman and has a great personality. She has lots of friends and is constantly on the go - sometimes it's really hard to keep up with her. We have a good time together (but it usually ends up costing me!) and I'm sure we will for many years to come.
You talk about Steve being embarrassed?! HA... I'm kind of embarrassed. Kidding! I know its hard to keep up with me sometimes, but Mom, You're my world and all I want to do is make you proud!! :) You're my BEST FRIEND! And I wouldn't change anything that's ever happened between us. The good times and the bad... it all happens for a reason. Just know I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING and YOU'RE THE BEST MOM ANYONE COULD EVER HAVE!! -XOXO
