[@brilliantbutblue]

Smiling through my tears😘 For all of us who have been on this journey from pregnancy announcement, morning sickness, scare at 11 weeks, every US, a trip to the ED, every update and for every prayer answered. The membrane sweep and the crazy Girl in Target falling in love with Gnomes whilst in Labour!! The beautiful water birth we where there.💞 To see that little miracle walking in her Yellow sundress with that smile that has brought us so much happiness. May your journey through life be always filled with happiness sweet baby Meredith. Happy 1st Birthday. "When you see only one set of footprints, it was then that l carried you"

[@thewadsquad]

Seeing all your babies gather around precious Meredith's high chair encouraging her to eat her smash cake made me blubber -like, seriously- ugly cry!!! I have 4 boys who are 14-21 years old now and this reminded me of some really great times we've had. Cherish every single moment, for they are fleeting! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET HONEY BEE 🐝 💛

So much fun watching Meredith. You worked so hard making everything perfect. To think when my kids turned one (a hundred years ago) all I did was buy a cake and dress them up. You have videos to show them when they get older and say, you never do anything for me. Such wonderful memories!

Fun Fact: Did you know that top ramen noodles is the most common burn? My younger sister had this happen to her about 10 years ago and they told her that at the burn hospital. They also said Adam Levine from Maroon 5 was at the same hospital shortly before her and that she tolerated her pain better. Not that that part was necessary, it just always comes to mind when I think of her burn lol
