This little soul is oh so precious.
This little girl became one month old, yesterday.
Sweet Addi Bird,
You have made us happier than we ever knew we could be, and this past month has flown by quicker than I wanted. I guess you'll continue to grow until you are too big to pick up, despite the fact that I've asked you to slow down already.
We learn more about you with each day. You like to be held closely, rocked and kissed to sleep, and smiled at. You'd rather sleep on your stomach or side than your back. You wake up in the night to eat and to sleep next to me. You are mesmerized by everything about your Daddy... his voice, his face, the way he holds you and sings to you.
One day, you'll reach out to me... you'll speak your first words...
you'll grow up and you'll have babies of your own.
But for now, for these sweet seconds, I kiss you until you fall asleep, pray over your tiny body, and smell each of your warm, sweet breaths.
Forgive me for all of the times I mess up, sweet baby.
I strive to be so very good to you, and God is teaching me each day
to love and serve you in the way He has called me to.
I love you, sweet girl. You have my heart. Happy One Month.
Mama
