Love, sweet love...

It’s mid-afternoon here in our home and I’ve got laundry in both the dryer and the washing machine and I’m about to pull a pan of brownies out of the oven. I can hear a very faint noise coming from the master bedroom. What is it? I step in to listen and discover that I left the nursery monitor on. I can hear little Miss Elizabeth in her room giggling and “talking” (she’s supposed to be napping! LOL!!). What is it about baby gibberish that just melts your heart?

I had no idea that being a mother of a little one could make my heart so full of love that I feel like it could almost pop with joy!!! I had no idea that when she cried, I would cry, too!! I had no idea that such a tiny little person could have me so completely wrapped up in her.

This is love.

Yes, that is definitely love.

My little guy turned 3 today. I looked back at the day he was born, remembering how his birthmother called me that day saying she was in labor. . .I never anticipated that I would be SO in love with this little guy. And the best part - that love just grows and grows.

I understand how you feel, especially since I never would have guessed at my age I would have the chance to do it all over again!!!
Our China girls are truly such a special blessing.

Yes, that is love, there is nothing like it, and it is understood as soon as one becomes a mother. ;-) Your baby girl is beautiful!
