Happy Birthday, Julia!
When I met Julia in 2001, she had just turned a year old. I went over to Ryan's parents' house to be introduced to everyone for the first time. She held her arms out to me and grabbed my finger and led me around the house. I was so nervous and she made me feel much more relaxed. Babies are good judges of character, so I figured if she liked me then maybe everyone else would too. She always knew that I was her Aunt Jodi.
Last year on April 13th, I gave her a dozen roses. This year, she gave me a dozen roses.
Julia was my flower girl in 2003.
Here we are at Alex's 2nd birthday party in 2002.Ryan and I left Olivia with my parents today and went out to lunch for the first time in. . .I don't know how long. We then headed over to Julia's birthday party. It was good for us to get out and spend some time together. We were anxious, however, to get back home to our little girl. Oh, and before I forget. . .be sure look here or check out the local section of today's paper. My dad was interviewed about the Joe Cocker/Mike Finnigan concert last night.

Dude! I so claim next baby-sitting duties! I remember how cute Julia was as your flower girl! She sure is turning into a beautiful lady isn't she? Glad you and Ryan could spend some alone time together. I'll talk to you soon.
