Happy birthday Kaylee- the big 8!!!

This month has been a blur!!!!!!

May 10, the day before kaylee's birthday, i had several photo shoots to do that day and was on my way to one, when i got in a car accident.  I went to flip a u-turn and this guy slammed into me on my front driver's side.  He swerved to the side to avoid rear ending the girl behind me and hit me instead.  sucky i know.  I knew right from the moment he hit me that things weren't ok.  Another guy called 911 and the paramedics showed up and took me to the hospital.  I broke my clavicle (collar bone) on my left side and needed surgery the next day to fix it.  The dr. put in a metal plate and a couple of screws and now i permanently have those with me:)

It was so crazy and we couldn't have done it w/o the help of our families.  THANK YOU so much to them.  I had surgery the morning of kaylee's b-day and i got home that afternoon, since it was out patient, and we still had her party, bounce house and all.  The kids had a good time and i just sat around and watched and made sure to take my pain pills.

We are now looking to find a new van, since ours was totaled.  The front wheel was totally bashed in and i'm sure the engine was damaged as well.  We still ended up going on our NYC/Boston trip  a couple days later, but it wasn't w/o some pain and discomfort.  But we still had a good time.  Pics to come of that.

BUT, to my baby Kaylee!!  I love you sweetie:)  I can't believe how these 8 years have flown by and how much i love you.  YOu made me a mom first and we got through some tough times together, but i've learned so much and am so excited for what's to come for you.  I want to be your friend and have good times together.  Thank you for you all you do to help me and your siblings.  YOu will be such  a good mom someday.  You're always so caring and thoughtful and ready to help in any way.  YOu're smart and such a good reader.  I love you so much!!
