I always knew that I wanted to be a mommy, but I never knew it would be like this. My heart has grown in ways I didn't know was possible since you came into our lives. You are a miracle, my miracle! To think of the way you started as something smaller than a pinpoint, that my body partnered with God to fashion your little fingers and your little toes, it amazes me and takes my breath away.
Every moment and every stage with you has been my favorite. Each day I don't think I could possibly love you anymore and then somehow the next day...I do. When you were first born, the happiness I felt cuddling you in my arms was unsurpassed. Then you crawled and said "ma-má - mom" (and later on "pa-pá - dad") and started to toddle, and my heart swelled with joy. This past year has been an amazing adventure, because while we always had our own way of communicating, you've been learning how to really communicate in leaps and bounds. Every day is something new, and to spend each day exploring, learning and growing with you is truly magical.
You are such a little love. While not always gentle, you are so caring. You cry when we watch a video where someone else is crying just because it breaks your heart to see someone else feel sad. Your love is never in short supply. You are so giving with your hugs, kisses and words of love. When you put your arms around me and tell me that you love me "muto - so much" I think it just doesn't get any better.
The other day, I got you dressed in the morning (you are starting to have more and more of a voice in what you wear each day). After we finished, you ran, stood in front of the mirror, and twirled around. "linda! - pretty!", you exclaimed. While you were twirling and giggling, a smile quickly stretched across my face and I could feel the dampness of tears forming in my eyes. You are so right. You are so beautiful inside and out, and I hope you will always know how beautiful you really are. I hope you will always know what a joy, a blessing and a miracle you are.
I am so incredibly thankful for every second you are in the world and I hope you will always know it!
