Reflections.

As the days are approaching to when I have a birthday girl AND Mother's Day, I can't help but to be beyond thankful. 

Exactly two years ago (two whole years) I was on bed rest, my sweet tiny baby did not want to grow and I had biweekly scans and office visits to check Lillian's IUGR.

Lillian came into this world with a bang, a scary bang. She was tiny and delivered via pretty emergent c-section. The moment I heard her little voice crying my entire world stopped. I died, the old me died. I was now responsible for a tiny human. I had to make sure she was comfortable, fed and happy. The most important thing to me is for my child to feel loved 100% of the time. 

My job as her mommy surpasses any other job God could ever throw my way. 

Two years ago I was unsure if my child would even make it to birth, I spent an entire weekend googling, typing on wet keys from my tears. Now, my almost two year old is spunky, sassy and brilliant.

I will celebrate Mother's Day 2013 by wiping noses, kissing boo boos, potty training and stealing kisses from my little lady.

 Lillian and I have gone through a lot together. 

We are the ultimate team, just me, jake and our little miracle.  

I love you so much my resilient baby girl. Even if you don't always think so.
