Almost There

My baby girl will be a year old in three weeks. This year has flown by. As the day draws near for her to blow out her first candle, I can't help but feel bittersweet about this milestone. I'm not quite ready for her to be one...that's one less year before she leaves for college, falls in love, gets married, has her own children. One less year of kisses and hugs and her thinking mommy and daddy make the world go round. But what a year it's been...an incredible year...the most amazing year of my life so far. So I welcome Addi's second year - reluctantly, but with anticipation too. But for the next three weeks, I'm going to soak up every moment of being a mommy to a child under one...and then when she is one, I'm going to soak up every moment of being a mommy to a child who is one...and when she is two, well, you get the idea. :) Blessed indeed, I am.
