Can I just say that, as a mother, it’s very rewarding to watch your little one grow up…but it also breaks your heart. I can’t believe it was only 3 years ago, which feels like last week, that I was holding her in my arms as she took her firsts breaths. I remember my heart skipping a beat when I heard her cry. I remember the moment I fell in love with her. It felt like she and I were the only ones in the room as we met for the first time. I don’t know how I actually called what I was living before her… “life”. I don’t recall many memories that were not with her. She is the true reason for me striving to be the better person I know I can be. To push myself to be a GREAT Mommy and to keep on with my dreams. I love her with every inch of my being!
I know the day will come that she will fight with me and she will hate me for not letting her go out that night. I know its “just around the corner”. Until then, I am taking in all the snuggles, kisses, hugs, “I love you’s”, and “Mommy you’re the best” as much as I can.

I remember loving your pics of her in her “earlier years” – true that; they do grow up fast.
she’s a doll! kudos to you for cherishing the snuggles and hugs as they’re offered

oh, and… go ahead – let her go out “that night” in the future. Just shadow her and keep your pepper-spray handy to ward off the guys she’ll have wrapped around her little finger
