Here is the birthday girl, telling you how old she will be on Sunday....ONE!
I cannot believe a year has passed since Madeline Jean was born. She has blessed us in ways I can't describe. Every day is a gift with her. This year has been full of fun, joy, happiness and learning, for all of us.
Below is a list of things I will never forget:
1. Having a baby is a lot of work, worthy of a gold medal!
2. Babies sleep and cry for the first couple months, they are kind of boring. However, after that, you'll never be bored again.
3. You never realized you could love something so much.
4. You never realized you would do anything, and I mean anything, for your baby.
5. Even if you were Babysitter of the Year growing up, it is completely different to have your own child.
6. Sometimes your neighbors are up at 4 a.m. too.
7. No matter what, you are the mom, and you know what's best for your baby.
8. Babies are more fun than going to the bar!
9. A sleeping baby is the most peaceful sight, for many reasons.
10. You need your baby just as much as your baby needs you.
Well, enough of this baby business, we're off to toddlerhood!
