It's hard for me to believe that 8 months ago, today, I gave birth to our beautiful little girl, Sophia. Since she has been a part of our lives, she has changed the status of Jeff and I, from a married couple, to a family. And we are loving it! Everytime she does something new, it's as if the whole world stops. We can't brag about her enough, but I think every parent can relate to that. I look back at pictures of when she was born ( a tiny 7 lbs & 5 oz.) and find myself missing how little and dainty she used to be. How she would sleep in our arms for hours and the tiniest yawn or facial expression got us so excited. But now I love the age she is at too, because she is developing her own personality and is so lovable and snuggly. She has her likes and dislikes and is developing a fiesty side too. Which at times is funny, but at other times, not so much.lol. We love every dimple, every hair, every inch of her. I never knew I was capable of this amount of unconditional love. I even find myslef worrying about her first day of school already. I was telling Jeff the other day that I didn't want her to ride the bus, that I was going to take her to school every day. I dont want to even think about letting go, but then again, it's in those moments that they grow and develop who they are. I'm just thankful she's still a baby and not five yet. I still love that she needs me and that she looks at me with those big, trusting, blue eyes, like she knows that I would never let anything happen to her. It's a big repsonsibility to have another person's happiness, health, and well being placed on your shoulders, but at the same time, it's the most wonderful, fullfilling and amazing feeling one can ever experience!
