Happy 3rd Birthday, Stella and Riley!

Happy birthday to my two beautiful nieces. You are both turning into such amazing little girls...Riley is funny and sweet with a bit of a stubborn streak (and she's nicknamed me "Dub" which I love); Stella is so kind and adorable with her curly red hair. You've traveled a long challenging road since the day you were born and are the stronger for it. We are blessed to have you in our lives. We love you!!!
