One year today!!!

I cannot explain how much my heart swells when I type these words. And at the same time I get this sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach.
It's been a whole year since you came into this world.

You won’t understand these words until you’re a mother yourself. You won’t get the feelings. It probably won’t matter much to you until then.

“Yeah yeah whatever you’re turning a year old. I know.”

I am not terrified of it, I am not sad. All I feel is immense pride and joy. And a little bit of worry. That the future years will go just as fast. As much as im excited for it yet I already miss the past.
 But I will do my best to live in the moment and enjoy each special moment as much as I can.

One year ago, today,I did not know how much my life would change. One year ago, today, I loved you, but did not know how much that love would stretch/grow/fill/change/complete. One year ago, today, your dad and i were excited and sooooo terrified and had no clue to how our life's were about to change.

Today, we celebrate a year of you, with a few close family and friends and our hearts filled with joy.
We celebrate the fact that we not only survived it, but somehow became better people in-spite of it & loved every moment of it.
And while I am teaching you little lessons, you are transforming the very core of me

This weekend you will be surrounded by what you will probably perceive as chaos, but there will also be close friends,  family, all the people that love you.

As well as cake, decorations, lots and lots of photos.

You won’t remember it, but I know you will have a blast looking through pictures and videos when you’re older.

I am not going to say much more. (even tho i want to)
Except that I love you. That no one, and I mean NO one, will ever be MORE important to us than you.

That we have been, are and will always be doing everything in our power to make your life the best that it can be.

You are a year old!

You are the most amazing girl in the whole world and daddy and I love you!
