Mother's Day

Sunday, May 10, 2009
I can't believe it has been 6 weeks since our little Livi girl was born! I know I haven't posted anything since she was born. In the next few days, I will try to post about the first 6 weeks. It has been crazy, but so rewarding and fun. Olivia is so adorable and we just can't get enough of her.:) For the past week or so Olivia has started to smile at us. It's really cute!
Today is my first Mother's Day and I am just so thankful that God has allowed me to become a mother to this wonderful baby. I don't take it for granted that God has truly blessed Jeremiah and me with Olivia. Even though the past 6 weeks have been rough, I wouldn't trade a single moment for anything. Being a mommy is absolutely fantastic. It's moments like this (the video below) that makes the sleepless days/nights worth it. It's moments like this that make me wonder how people don't believe in God. How else do you describe the love I have for this little girl or the joy that fills my heart when I am with her. Here is a video of her laughing at me when I am singing to her (who wouldn't laugh at me..I'm a horrible singer!:)). I just wanted to share this because I think it's precious!
