A Unique Birthday Gift Idea

A couple days before Miss A's birthday, she received a small package in the mail. It was a birthday gift from a very caring friend Cathleen. We opened to find a small bag of Oxalis Regnelli, aka Lucky Shamrock bulbs.

The message said,

Happy 1st Birthday, Miss A! I hope you know how much charm you have brought to this world. Have Mommy and Daddy plant these shamrocks to bless you and bring you the treasures you brought them. XO Cathleen

This is such a unique birthday gift idea!

We will definitely be planting these soon in a cute little pot on the window sill above the kitchen sink. Perfect place to show off how lucky we are to have such a healthy, precious, happy little daughter in our lives. I honestly have a difficult time imagining my life before she was born. When I can picture how "fun and free" it was, I don't like my life as much as I remember. She has definitely added some significant charm and treasure to our lives.

We love you Miss A! <3
