Delaney is just days away from her first birthday.  The first year of a baby’s life has such dramatic changes—growth, milestones, personality.  And, Delaney has pushed them all to the limit.  Her desire to keep up with Franny and Cole is so incredibly obvious that it is almost comical.  But, with each passing day she does get increasingly closer.   The baby in her is fading away and the toddler is emerging.  I don’t feel nostalgic about the change. Rather, I am excited to see her grow and develop into a little person, with a distinctive character and uniqueness that is all her own.  I must say, from what we can see of her personality now, I can’t wait to see what she’s like in another year!
