Girly girl

I love having a little girl in the house! Today I painted Abby's toenails. Yes, I know, she is only 3 months old but I couldn't resist! It is so precious. I will take it off when she starts putting her toes in her mouth but not before! :)

I was resigned to the fact that I wasn't going to be given a girl. I guess she saw the opportunity for her turn on earth and took it. Just in the nick of time too. She has blessed our lives in ways she will never know.

Already we are having so much fun together. I want us to have a wonderful relationship always. She is making me want to get all my ducks in a row. I want to be the best example I can be for her. I hope that I can make her understand the special bond we have as mother and daughter.

I feel that the time we have is so important and so precious. I didn't think that I would lose my own mother as soon as I did. It is a shame because we only really became friends after I had Braden. She was always saying, "When you have children you will understand." She was so right! I wasted so many years of the time we had together not even liking her. It is shameful to say the least, but it is true.

So now I am completely determined to have a good relationship with Abby.
