My daughter's Birthday

Today is my older daughter's 11th Birthday. Time flies. I can't believe 11 years has passed since that day she was born!?


It was perfectly sunny day in Little Rock. I went to St.Vincent hospital on 5am for induced labor. Eventually, she came out 9pm though. After that, she was transferred to Children's Hospital to examine her special heart. Everything was proceeded orderly as we expected.


At 7 months check-up, the doctor informed us about her heart condition. Literally that news scared me to death, since then I had been so upset as much as you can imagine up until a week before I had her.


On that day, the doctor told me that the baby was ready to come out and also she said she touched her on tip of her head when she examined. The doctor touched my baby! That fact gave me reality indeed. She is coming to me! She only has me! In that instance I became a mother, not a coward pessimist anymore.


She survived three major heart operations by 3 years old. Thank God! I don't know how I can thank all of people who support us and thank to her strong heart!


Now she is beautiful, curious, active, strong, thoughtful, tall, suntanned, playful, love reading, love horseback riding, bilingual, smart and sweet girl. I'll never know what kind of life is waiting for her, but I know she knows I'll never stop loving her from the bottom of my heart.

Happy Birthday my baby!!
