One Half

....my baby is 1/2 a year old today.


My eyes are teary and half of my heart is smiling while the other half is breaking. Don't get me wrong, I am so blessed to have a happy, healthy, beautiful baby girl, however, today I just want to "pause" time and make this moment last a little bit longer.


....my baby is 1/2 a year old today.

It just seems like yesterday you came into this world and we heard you cry for the very first time. We waited a long 9 months to hear the song that you sang that day and for the 3rd time they placed a beautiful baby in my arms and you slipped right into my heart.

...my baby is 1/2 a year old today.

You are growing way to fast and even though you still rely on us for so many things, I can see your own little person shining through a little more each day. I often look at you and wonder if someday when you are a mother will you know exactly how I feel when your babies are growing up before your very eyes. Will you wonder why time has to go by so quickly? Will you wonder if you are doing all of the right things? Will you wonder what they will be when they grow up? Will you wonder what Gods special plan for them will be? Will you look at them when they are 6 months old and cry because 1/2 of a year of their life has passed? Sometimes I wonder.

....my baby is 1/2 a year old today.

How blessed am I that my baby is 1/2 a year old today? I am blessed beyond measure, I am blessed without a doubt!

1/2 A Year Old Today

You laugh with a belly laugh

Your smile can melt a room full of people

You hair has started to come back in around the side, however the middle is still out of control.

You sit up all by yourself

You love to play with your brothers

You love bath time

Rocking you to sleep rarely happens. You would much rather just stretch out in your bed with your pacifier and your lovey and go to sleep on your own

You love music

You are a Pa and Iya's girl

You reach for different people to take you

You take great naps, go to bed around 9:00 and sleep until 8:30 or 9:00 most mornings

....you are 1/2 a year old, after all!
