Flashback: 2am May 2000 in Augusta, GA. Mollie was one week old and was extremely cholicy. We could not get her to go to sleep so Brian took her and I laid back down. I heard him turn on the music and I watched (peeking around the corner) as he danced with her to "Let it Be" by the Beatles. She stayed quiet the whole time he was dancing with her and it was then that I remember thinking how truly grateful I was to have Brian as the father of my children and so thankful to have Mollie in our lives.
Today: Every birthday we play the Beatles Birthday song. We all dance and have a great time. Afterwards Brian turned on "Let it Be" and asked Mollie to dance. I looked over and that old memory flashed into my head. Today she turned 10 years old, but to me she is still my little baby mesmerized by her dad. I had tears running down my eyes and I looked around and saw the others laughing and dancing. I truly am grateful to have them all in my life.
Happy Birthday Mollie! You are an amazing young lady full of life and energy, you are super fun, a great nurturer, and a great daughter. We love you!
