And today she is ten

Ten years ago we were told she would never roll over

Nine years ago we were told she may never walk

Eight years ago we were told she may never speak

Seven years ago we realized the only one holding Bridget back was our believing people who had no hope

Six years ago she called MISSY & Sydney at the top of her lungs

Five years ago she touched sand

Four years ago she started kindergarten

Three years ago Angela Williams Baron daughter punched a kid in the nose bc they said Bridget was broken

Two years ago Bridget no longer needed someone to interpret her words

One year ago Bridget was invited to a typical classmates birthday party.

Today Bridget is defying anyone who says she cannot do and showing that not only can she do she can triumph

Tonight she will run into the 99 Restaurants and order Mac & Cheese

I never knew I could love someone so much or believe in miracles.

But Bridget is a miracle and she will continue to defy limits

She is freaking awesome

She is #tinybutmighty

She is loved

She is laughter

She is awesome

She is a decade old

She is Bridget
