Description: The journaling reads: My sweet Hope, it amazes me just how much you've grown. Of course growth is inevitable, but is surprising to me as your mom all the same. You have, since the day you were born, always kept us on our toes. Although I wish from time to time that I could still hold you on my chest as I did in the early days, I'm glad that you aren't too big yet for me to still hold you. Love you.
