This is my daughter, Emma.
Today, she turns 4 years old — and instead of celebrating at home, we’re marking this special day in a hospital room 🏥.

She wished for familiar walls and her favorite toys.
Still, here she is — brave, gentle, and showing a strength far beyond her years ✨.

This moment isn’t only about sadness.
It’s about love that doesn’t leave 🤍
Hope that stays, even in hard places 🌈
And celebrating life wherever we are.

Because birthdays aren’t defined by where we stand —
They’re defined by how much love surrounds us.
And today, this room is full of it 💕

Happy 4th birthday, sweet Emma 🎂🤍
