Well, my baby has turned 2. I can't believe it. I have been through a lifetime of crap within the last 8 months, but it still feels like I just had her. I just thank God for her every day. No matter how shitty life gets, she can still put a smile on my face. I am in awe of her beauty, her innocence and her ability to light up the room just by her presence. People are always telling me how strong I am. What they don't know is that my girls are the ones lifting me up every day. They are my strength. I often write how they are driving me crazy and how difficult they can be (and they are!), but I couldn't get through life these days without them. Cancer has allowed me to appreciate the small things in life and to not take my family for granted. It is a kind of stop and smell the roses thing (and if you have ever walked with Sherri, you have stopped to smell the roses!). Anyway, this post is for Carina. Happy Birthday, Baby! Mommy loves you.

Susie - Happy Birthday Carina! I have been inspired by reading through your blogs - your strength, your humor, your realness...thankyou for sharing and I will continue to pray for you, for your spirit, your healing, and your family. I would love to come and see you maybe later this summer....Leila (my baby) turns 2 at the end of July....I also have 2 boys (7&5), and I appreciated your blog on listening...or not listening as the case may be. Continual struggle for all moms and dads....Take care of yourself.
Love & hugs - Lesha (Grossi) Harding
So nice to read how well you are doing. I miss you!
Susan
