Babies are growing up

And so tomorrow is Olivia's sixteenth birthday.  This time 16 years ago I could hardly wait to see what my new baby looked like.  I was a booked C Section due to probs with my last labour and risks with high blood pressure.  This time tho it was all organised and a little sister for my daughter Aisling would be perfect.  And indeed she was.  Little Olivia born at around 4 pm weighing in at 7lb 1oz, long thin blue feet and a perfectly gorgeous face.  She was such a quiet baby that a couple of days later when one of the junior doctors was looking to check her out once again he came looking for the "quiet baby".  Olivia is still a quiet type of noisy giggling, laughing, entertaing, hardworking, loving, caring delightful person whom I have the privelege to call my daughter.  Olivia is my girl and I love her with all my heart.  She is my pride and joy.  I am so proud of her and still cant believe 16 years later that I have been lucky enough in my lifetime to know her, hold her, teach her, guide her, appreciate her and be oh so proud of her.  I love you Olivia.  Bring on the next 16 years, and if I know anything about Olivia I know that its going to be eventful and exciting for the next 16.
