Day 11

I love being a mom. I really do. Its such a rewarding experience to have a child. Today was one of those days when I couldn't remember what life was like before Lucy.

We didn't do anything exceptional today, but she was so affectionate! It felt like I was getting kisses and hugs all day-none of which were prompted by me. Its the best feeling to have your little girl walk up to you, grab your cheeks and give you a kiss just because she felt like it.

I can't believe that in one month, my little girl will be 2. Where has the time gone? Every month I say "this is the best age" and it just keeps getting better. I now understand why everyone tells you to cherish every moment, because they really do grow up fast. It feels like only yesterday that I was here in Germany anxiously awaiting her arrival.

Being a mom is the BEST!
