She has many nicknames, but "bubbie" is one of the most-used...
...throughout the day, I was remembering what it was like last year at this time...
...holding brand new life that didn't even know what she'd just been through.
Those first 24 hours were so special. I hardly left our bed, cuddling our little miracle from the Lord. Our lives were forever changed.
Happy first birthday, cuddle bug.
I thought I knew how it was going to be.
We would add this new member of our family to our current lives and keep plugging along as we had been, just with a little one in tow.Ha.
The past year hasn't been a bed of roses...
...but there have been so many special moments given by the Lord...and Lord willing there will be many more to come. Becoming a mom is something I have looked forward to ever since I was little. The Lord was gracious and granted my desire with so much blessing...and so much responsibility.
I hope I can emulate my mom in helping my baby discover the world from the safety of loving, nurturing arms...with true Wisdom from above as we face new seasons and stages.

ReplyDeleteIt's hard to believe it's been a whole year. The Lord has blessed abundantly!
