Abigail turns 7

On Saturday the 29th of September 2001 a little girl was born at the Kingsbury Hospital in Claremont, Cape Town.
We named her Abigail Melissa Hutton. Abigail meaning "father's joy" and Melissa meaning "bee" which is the greek version of my name Debbie meaning "bee" in Hebrew.
She was expected to arrive on the 6th of October but came early after what I thought was a tummy bug but was actually labour!

She was born by emergency C-section at 6:40am weighing 3,6kg's.



Looking back I can't believe seven years have passed and our little baby girl is in Big school!

This year, her 7th, has been quite a busy one for Abigail.

She has learn't to read, learn't to tie her shoelaces, learn't to add and subtract and count in 2's; 5's and 10's, she has lost 2 teeth (and another on it's way) and she has learn't to sleep in her own bed!!

We are very proud of all the things she has accomplished this year (not least the last one!!) and we know that she will continue to learn and grow and do new things each and every year.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABIGAIL, we hope you have a very special day.
