Sweet, tender-hearted, silly, best hugger, big belly-laugher, very affectionate, adores her sister, princess lover through and through, girly girl......that's how I would describe my angel Allison. You came into this world in dramatic fashion, via emergency c-section and you have provided plenty of drama in your six years of life.
I love how you come into my room every morning to give me hugs and kisses and say good morning. I love when you crawl in my bed and snuggle for a few minutes. I love how you wrap your whole body around me when you hug me. I love how you belly laugh out loud when you watch movies. I love how you adore you big sister. I love everything about you!
I am so thankful that I happened to look at the clock at 6:45 this evening and was able to hold you while we sang "Happy Birthday" to you at the time you were born six short years ago. You are a blessing and joy to be around and we love you so much! I'm so thankful God chose me to be your mommy.
We celebrated your birthday yesterday with family and you get to have your first "friend" party next Saturday.
This first picture is one of my favorites of you on the day you were born. Ma Ready stayed around at the hospital to get to see you. This picture was taken at 9:59 p.m. just after we got into our room. She did not want to look up for the picture. She told us she just wanted to look at you.

I asked you so many times what you wanted for your birthday, and the only thing you would say was a small stuffed panda bear. You wanted that so Lauren could have it as a baby to go with her big stuffed panda bear. (You have a big stuffed polar bear that Aunt Susie gave you last year and a small, stuffed, baby polar bear....you wanted Lauren to have a baby for her panda bear). You did tell Paw-paw you wanted a small stuffed bunny rabbit. You also asked for new doll clothes for Becky.
