I can't believe my Baby Doll is five today. When I watch the three of you I wonder how this family ever made it without you in our lives. You all have brought so many smiles, much laughter, and even more love that I, or anyone, could ever imagine I want to share a story with you of how I started calling you "Baby Doll". You see, I had an aunt, Jeannie, who was the world to me and I was the world to her. She taught me many things without knowning that she was. She taught me to love music, and dance even if people are watching,and yes, there is a time and place to say say thing out loud, but sometimes things just have to be said. Most of all she taught me to be myself and love myself and not to listen to the harmful words that people may try to send your way. She called me "Pretty Girl" and she called Nikki "Baby Doll". When she left us I knew I would not hear those names "Pretty Girl" nor would Nikki hear "Baby Doll" but she left us, or me, with these terms of endearment to pass on to you and Makynlee. My Pretty Girl and Baby Doll. So if you ever wonder why I call you that....now you know. Happy Birthday Baby Doll...may you have many more and may your dreams and wishes be carried to the heavens on the wings of Angels.
