To My Little Girl,
When I first found out I was pregnant with you, I went into an immediate panic. How was I supposed to raise a child when I was just a child myself? How would your daddy and I provide for you and give you everything you could ever need? I was scared. I've never been so scared in my entire life, and now I was responsible for another life.
The first time I saw you on the ultrasound I nearly cried. You were just a little speckle at the time; I've never been so in love with such a small speckle before. The first time I heard your heartbeat, that's when it hit me, I have this beautiful little human being inside of me. I am your mommy, me. The first time I felt you move, I thought it was gas. Then you moved again! This time, I did cry, I cried harder than I've ever cried before. There you were, not even born yet and you were already figuring out how to move all of your little limbs.
The day you were born my whole entire life changed. I finally understood what this magical love that everyone spoke of was. I fell in love the second I saw you. You were six days late and wanted nothing to do with being born, you wanted to stay with me forever. Between you and me, I didn't want to share you much either. The whole first night after you were born I didn't sleep, I couldn't help it, I had to look at you. You were so beautiful, so real, so little.
Spending each and everyday with you is a blessing. How did I get so lucky to have a little girl as sweet as you? You learn so much in just one day and I get to watch all of it happen. You are so bubbly, I love your little personality so much. You make each and everyday worth all the worries your daddy and I had before you were born.
How is it possible that it has been almost six months? Just a year ago you were wriggling around inside of me and now you're out, laughing, smiling and nearly crawling.
My little girl, oh how you have changed me. You are all I have ever wanted, I can't imagine my life without you. It amazes me how much of an impact one little human can have on the people around them.
My sweet little angel, don't you ever grow up. Know how much I love you and that I will do everything I can to make you the happiest girl in the world.
I love you my baby girl.
