A Wonder and Delight

To the little girl I call Popcorn. Maybe you don't know what it is that makes you so special to me. You hold such a special place in my heart just like the rest of your siblings. You were born in a time in my life when I needed happiness. I'll tell you a little secret about you that makes you so special. God created you and was so excited to share you with your parents, two older sisters and older brother, your grandparents and many aunt's, uncles and cousins. He wanted to share the gift to the world. You are his gift and every year I am so blessed having you in my life. Do you know why you gained the nickname Popcorn? Not because you love popcorn, there's other food you could have been called because of your love for but, when your sister Ella was your age (almost 6 and your mom was pregnant with you) I was sitting in their bedroom, I asked Ella if she was so excited to have a baby sister and what name she wanted to call you. She said I want her to be called popcorn. She never called you popcorn but from that day I called you popcorn. Mostly as I have watched you grow, you always seem to surprise me in a way like popcorn pops. Full of fun surprises some I'm not ready for but in the end I love most of them. Thanks for bringing surprise and joy to my life. Do life big Sarah darling and never forget to dream big!
