Dear Serenity,
With just 14 days into the new year and so far it's been a pretty exciting year for you huh baby girl?
We totally rung in the new year with style...hopefully next year it will be bigger!
All in all you have gotten a second daddy, big sister, and little sister...all within a few months time. So you went from being an only child, to a little sister, and now a big sister...you are now officially a "middle child."
Ricky and Thelma delivered your baby sister...seeing her baby pictures reminded me of when I had you. She really looks like you too. The face and the hair mainly. You both look like Ricky. He hasn't forgotten about you. And as much as Ricky and I are at ends with one another, I know he will always love you. At least that's all I can hope for. I sent our congratulations to him, and he's received it. But hasn't responded. Maybe it's better that way. Your Nanu has been in your life, just as your Auntie Crystal has been. Who knows...maybe in the future Ricky will be in your life more. Until the future though, just know you have me.

I started this post after I found out that your little sister arrived...But now it's roughly 2 weeks after and I have yet to find the words to finish this post.
What is there for me to say? I can only hope for the best.
No matter what or who may enter into our lives, nothing will change the fact that I love you.
Forever and always,
Mommy
