I LOVE being a Mumma!
Even on the days where she cries for what feels like hours, or when I'm getting up to her for the 4th time that night. When she won't drink her bottle then gets cross cos she's hungry ... When she's beside herself and nothing I do works, then I hand her to daddy and she stops instantly and goes to sleep ... Even on the days where I just want to give up and go back to work and my life as it was pre-child ...
I love her with every fibre of my being. I don't give up because she is my child and she is so worth the effort! The way she snuggles into my neck when she's tired. The real smiles she's just started giving us. Watching her learn to move her arms and legs, and make them do what she wants. Watching her stare intently at something new. The way she stares at the same spot to the right on the ceiling when I change her on the change table - who you looking at Lil girl? The way sometimes just being close to me, snuggled into my chest is enough to calm her down. Seeing her kick and splash and love having a bath. The way she stops sucking her bottle and listens to new noises. The fact that when her daddy gets home she seems excited to see him.
I love you very much Katherine. And i'm recording this here for those days when it all seems too hard. You are worth the pain, worth every tear. Your smile lights up my life and I'm so blessed that you are ours.
