FivepointO

Dear Bryce and Layne,

I have been honored to be your mother for the past 5 years and even more honored to be able to watch you grow and mature into beautiful, intelligent and independant young girls.

What a difference this year has made in your life.
You have travelled across the world to a new home and country thousands of miles from the home and friends that you love. All I have to say is WOW! What troopers you girls have become and have adapted so well to your life in Singapore.

Bryce~ my tiny and mighty 3 lb 7 oz fighter. No one, not even your doctors, knew the kind of spirit and perseverance you had in your petite body when you were born. You fought, worked hard and never stopped proving everyone wrong.
You.are.perfect.in everyway.
Here you are, 5 years old today, and I do not have one reservation about the decisions we have made for you.
You have a powerful personality that draws people to you.
You don't back down.
You love to sing.
You love to dance.
Loyal to your friends.
You are the girliest of girls...pink, dresses, baby dolls, barbies...

I am proud to be your mom.

Layne~ You are my rock. My go to girl. You keep me grounded by your sense of right and wrong. I can always count on you for everything. Things come easy for you yet you work hard at everything you do. You are a natural athlete, creative, artistic, caring, sympathetic and emphathetic.
You love music.
You love animals.
The outdoors.

I am proud to be your mom.

As you girls get older please remember how truly special it is that you are sisters. You have been together forever and as you get older and personalities, friendships and interests flourish in different directions remember to count on each other, love each other, take care of each other always. Forever twins,forever sisters,forever family.
