Before I had children, I used to hear people always talk about how fast your kids grow up and how quickly the time flies. I completely get it now, because we blink and they are no longer babies. This time of year I always get a bit sentimental and think, it would be so nice to have another little person running our house!
This year is no exception!
I look at my daughter and I think about our journey to parenthood and what a huge miracle children really are. Our creator is truly AWESOME. I look back at her baby pictures and look at her now and see tiny resemblences of that baby who entered the world just a few years ago. She takes my breath away with her passion, compassion, generosity, understanding, sheer joy, contentment, humor and curiosity. I cannot imagine our family with out her in it. There are many times when she makes me want to pull my hair out and times when I feel that I am not a good mom, but those times are so far and few compared to the moments when she greets me in the morning with her cuddles and kisses. When she calls for me when she is in need, when she picks momma to put her to bed.
Baby Girl, I love you and am so happy you are my daughter, God Bless you.
