Mother's Day

As I'm sitting here typing this, Emily is in her swing. She probably won't wake up until morning. I'm okay with that. Ever since she was born, she has always stayed up late with me. Brian will go to sleep, and then its mommy and Emily time. All we do is lay on the couch and talk to each other. I consider it the most special time I get with her.

I fall more and more in love with Emily ever single day. I think she is the most adorable child on the planet (yeah...I'm a little biased).

I remember last year on Mother's Day. I was so angry and bitter from going through a miscarriage. Little did I know that 6 days later, I was going to take a pregnancy test, and that it would come out positive!

I would do anything for this girl. I would walk on hot coals for her. I know she loves me back, because of the way she is when she first sees me in the morning. She has this smile that lights up the room. When she sees me, we lock eyes...and its as if no one in the world matters to her, except me! She knows I'll hold her when she's crying. She knows I'll keep her clean, feed her, and play together with her toys.

I know one day she won't need me to kiss the boo-boos. She won't want me to hold her anymore. She'll tell me that she can go into school by herself. So for now, I'm enjoying this.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers and soon-to-be mothers! I hope that you have an enjoyable, relaxing day with your children!
