Mommy Doesn't Want Me to Have a Birthday Party!


Yeppers, that is right. I do not want my precious baby to turn one tomorrow. She is the child we never thought we could have. Who knows if we can have another one. Our adopted child-to-be will more than likely will be over 2yo. So, yes, tonight when I rock and sing to her to sleep & tuck her in tight, I will pray over her and thank the Lord for this amazing year with such a wonderful child. I treasured each laugh, late-night feeding, cuddle, hug, and all first year milestones these past twelve months, but the months just zipped by anyway. I love you my sweet PookieBear! Sweet dreams my soon to be 1 year old. It's alright, I am ready now, you may have your birthday! : )

And I am so sorry you almost spit your coffee out.. that would have been messy! lol

  4. Oh, Shannon, I absolutely know that sentiment and you shared it so beautifully!
    So many things about Mama-hood are bittersweet...we celebrate the milestoes with such pride and joy, but long to recapture the baby moments or little moments over & over again!
    Hugs to you Mama!
