It was tonight, 8 years ago that my water broke and I rushed to the Bitburg Krankenhaus and went into labor with Ava. Sometime, after midnight, I had a 6 lb 8 oz baby girl who tied my little family together. I'd arrive in Germany as a single mother of a gorgeous little Stevie.... and I got married, and then we had Ava. It was a whirlwind adventure filled with an abundance of blessings. Travel, love, family.
Ava has since become a middle child in our family. She has ALWAYS been packed with attitude and spunk :D throw in a baby sister and she's struggled to find her spotlight. She's athletic and loud (and somewhere behind the volume and movement she's sweet, and innocent.)
She has been a daddy's girl since the beginning... an excellent student, curious and driven.
SO much to tell about this little 8 yr old... for now, a few photos:
