...my baby turned 10 months today. for some reason, this has been hard for me. i remember turning 10 years old and being so sad...odd.
but today as we played and laughed and sang and lyla got up on all fours to practice crawling, i've been amazed at how incredibly blessed i am that Jesus has allowed me of all people to be lyla's mama. she's such a gift. when i lost our first baby, i was so scared that i would never have the privilege to hold my own child in my arms...but it's more than a privilege. it's more than anything i ever dreamed of. she is a blessing, a treasure, an amazing beautiful person that i am blessed to get to know and love and cherish.
so happy 10th month birthday little one. my words that i write down may not be enough to adequately portray how much i love you, but i hope the thousands of hugs and kisses and "i love yous" that you get each day show you how truly in love with you i am.
