When you are sick, crying, and only want Momma I find the strength to stay up with you all night. When you both are upset and I am by myself; somehow we make it through--together. You seem to not judge my decisions and love me no matter the outcome.
You are growing. You are changing. You can understand and communicate your needs and wants. You are fun. You are sassy. You are hard. You are my whole world.
After an especially hard week I open a book tonight and as I read the words to you tears run down my face.
"I wanted you more than you ever will know..."
Sometimes I forget about what life was like before you. I've said before that my life started when you both got here. I've never been happier, more content, or more in love than I am now. It's because of you. It seems completely appropriate to emphasize that I have also never been as paranoid, emotional, or protective either. My love for you has woken me up and changed me for the better!
"You are loved, you are loved, you are loved!"
When we finally found out we were pregnant and pregnant with twin girls, I cried. I knew how badly that I wanted to be a Mom but, I didn't know how badly that I wanted to be your Mom. Even bringing you home from the hospital and spending the whole first year with you I thought, I couldn't possibly love these girls any more than I do now. Well, I think I do. With every day, every new phase, every new experience, my heart grows more and more.
I am so lucky to be your Mom, and I am so thankful that I am your Mom. Looking forward to a weekend that is all about you because, let's face it, you made me a Mom and in my opinion you deserve the celebration. <3
