Scrapping Tonight

Eight years ago today, I gave birth to our second daughter, Lilly Keiko Bowkis, weighing in at 8lbs 7oz at around 7am in the morning.
Lilly was a completely different baby to Izzy, Lilly fed and slept. In fact I think baby books were written about Lilly, she was text book perfect.

Izzy fell totally head over heels with her new baby sister, and our family of 3 became 4 and we were complete.
Eight years later, and I have a beautiful blue eyed blonde, who has a huge heart of gold.

• Lilly lights up a room with her smile and her personality. Lilly can captivate an audience with her wit and charm, sings like an angel, and lives in Lilly land!
•  She loves the world we live in, and is a huge animal lover, has a great interest in everything to do with the planet. Lilly has a green thumb, whatever she touches in the garden blossoms, literally!
• Lilly is an orange belt in Qi Kwan Do, can memorize lyrics and words with amazing ease, and we are often sat down to listen to Lilly recite the whole school play, word for word, all parts!

Lilly will continue to grow, continue to make people happy, and I will continue to be charmed by her wit and humour. I will wake up tomorrow morning to her beautiful voice, her familiar smell and that smile.
