June 22, 2008 at 12:36am I had the most beautiful baby in the world. She was 20.5 inches long, and 7.3 pounds with brown eyes, and a little bit of brown hair.
She was a great baby, as she was always smiling and hardly ever cried. She loved her yellow blanket that has a duckling on it, and her big bird stuff animal thing that had a teether attached to it. She also enjoyed waking up and watching 'Wonder Pets' with my mom in the morning, at 2-3 months old, lol.
She loved seeing my mom and I every week at our visits.. The second she saw us, she would reach for us to grab her from the visit supervisor. And she wouldn't let us leave until we gave hugs and kisses, which we would never leave without giving anyways.
She also loved to take our phones and try to take photos, and to take photos with us. Plus the park.. She loved to swing and slide with us. She also loved to be silly when I would feed her ice cream, and her lunch, which I have a video of one of the times on facebook.
My favorite memory of her is finding out she was a girl, like I wanted her to be. But my favorite memory with her, would obviously be all the days she was home with me..
Though, if I had to pick a favorite memory from a visit.. it would either be when I first saw her crawl, first saw her walk, or the visit we got for her first birthday; where my mom and I brought her balloons, cake, and presents. Which I have photos from. (Although, I've realized i didn't get any of her and my mom together from it.. oops :-/ )
And her nickname from her "father" and I was / is "Savy". But lately, I call her by her first or first and middle name when I write about her.
Well.. that's some about my birthday girl. Thanks for reading.
Photo is mine, of my mom and I in the shirts we made for today.

You're not hurting me by asking. I wrote about it before.. maybe a couple of times.. but her father abused her when she was 3months old. And although my mom and i proven to have not known, i still lost her to the state. Because he wasnt in jail yet for doing it, her lawyer thought he wouls get near her if i got her back.

Yeah.. i could never want nothing to do with my baby. I hate her not being here now, and want to be apart of her life more than anything. Even if im not her mom to her.
