Yesterday was magical.
Yesterday was peaceful.
Yesterday was happy.
I am so grateful for my life, especially to be a mother.
I am honored to be Elisabeth's mom. It's a big job. Sometimes I think about just how dependent she is. Sometimes I think about how she needs me for everything. Of course there are the obvious things, like food and diaper changes, but there are little things that I think about daily. For example, when I get her tucked into bed I try to figure out what weight of blanket she needs. Most people can just kick off a blanket if they get too hot, or they can pull on an extra blanket if they are cold. Elisabeth can do neither, she needs me to keep her in mind. I can usually sense what she needs - that's the magic of being a mother, you can sense things.
Yes, I am a lucky one. Lucky to have all of this.
I will never forget just how lucky I am.
