I Want To...

…remember the sleepless nights.

…embrace my greasy and root showing hair.

…enjoy the scent of her newborn head.

…smile even when I’m tired.

…rejoice in the chaos.

…hold her as much as I can.

…be thankful for diaper duty.

…focus on what really matters.

…hold her close.

…joyfully endure showerless days.

…breathe deeply.

…love fearlessly.

…revel in her innocence.

…be proud of the dark circles under my eyes.

…feel her heart beat against my chest.

…be bathed in peace.

…accept my body for the beautiful giver of life that it is.

…leave no cheek unkissed.

…have no regrets, for I know all too well that this time with her is fleeting. She will be grown and gone before I can blink my eyes. And I want to make every moment count, now while I still can.

I found this on another blog that I follow and I couldn't resist using it! It is exactly how I feel about my precious babies!!

Happy 2 months to you Charli Brooke! You are such a blessing to our family and we can't imagine life any other way!
