Dear Me,
This time last year, you were basically dying. Between the extreme exhaustion of early pregnancy and having to wait almost two months for your first prenatal appointment, you thought that time was not even moving, really, and that your sesame-seed-sized baby would never ever ever arrive. Everything had changed, but nothing had changed. All your dreams came true but they were still kind of just dreams.
Now, if you'll believe it, that sesame-seed-sized baby is no longer the size of a sesame seed and she's asleep on your chest. She smiles with her mouth wide open and tries to grab things out of your hands.
And it hit me yesterday: You're a mom now. I mean, a mom! You have a pregnancy under your belt and you've experienced labor and delivery and you're totally a mom. Isn't that crazy and awesome?
You are an awesome mom. From the time you knew your were pregnant you have been great. You will always be an awesome mom, from now till the end of time. Being a mom is one of life's greatest gifts. :)
