3 short years ago on May 5th 2008 our little Caitlin Annette Lewis made her first appearance in the world. She was quiet & blue and needed a lot of help at first but she was a fighter and made it out of the hospital in 10 days. For the first 2 years she was the sweetest little girl and the last year our little Caitlin REALLY came out ;-). We discovered what a beautiful & imaginative little girl God had blessed us with. We joke about Caitlin surviving the 2's but really I think it is Mitchell & I that survived them! Caitlin is one of the strongest willed children I have ever known and she spent a good part of the year using that to assert herself into lots of trouble....but at the same time I have seen the good this characteristic has brought her. When Caitlin puts her mind to something she can accomplish anything! We are praying God will give us wisdom to nurture her strong will into a strength so she can use it to do amazing things in Jesus' name some day. She is the funniest little person I know and y 2 1/2 had the same full vocabulary as her 6 year old sister! She loves to sing and ha memorized many songs. Caitlin has shown me what it really means to depend on Jesus every day and for that I am grateful. I look forward to the next year and many more with Caitlin and yes I do pray the 3's will at least be a little less challenging as the 2's. =)
