This very special lady celebrated her big second birthday this weekend. It was a spectacular circus themed event with all the trimmings surrounded by love, family, and friends.

Happy Birthday, A’Vayah! It’s been awesome watching you grow! You are the most adorable little Ring Master I have ever seen! Your smile and your laughter lights up a room.

When trying to find the right words to say, I was reminded of the beautiful quote her mama wrote and posted.

“If before you were born, I could have gone to heaven and saw all the beautiful souls, I still would have chosen you. If God had told me, “This soul wold one day need extra care and needs'” I still would have chosen you.

If God had told me, “This soul would make you question the depth of your faith,” I still would have chosen you.

If He had told me, “This soul would make tears flow from your eyes that could fill a river,” I still would have chosen you.

If HE had told me, “All that you know to be normal would drastically change,” I still would have chosen you.

Of course, even though I would have chosen you, I know it was God who chose me for you.” ~ Teri Banish

Happy Birthday, little lady! It’s been a joy watching you grow!
