you're on an antibiotic for an ear infection. it has given you a HORRIBLE diaper rash. you are clingy. you are cranky. you are not a happy girl. we have had looooonnnnnggggg days this week. and that little white bottle in my refrigerator is still about 3/4 full. ugh.
but today ended on a really sweet note. the Lord just knows ;)
we had a great dinner. (you ate!) you cuddled with dad and a few babies. we had a fun bath. you ate MORE yogurt and sweetly took your medicine. and crashed in my arms.
i love you. all of you. :)
.... after you're asleep (unless i crash with you. ha.) i clean up the house and get ready for the next day.
i just finished for today.
it's one of my favorite parts of the day. it sounds silly. but i LOVE to clean up your toys. i love to put them all back in their little places so you can find them fresh the next day. i love to see what you've played with that day. it makes me so thankful that i am a mom. it makes me thankful for you. i really love all the baby dolls and sparkly things stashed around the house. it's fun to be a girl mom. i really eat it up. i'm sure i take motherhood for granted at times. and i'm sure that sometimes i sound like a complainer. but, at the end of the day... as i put our home back together, and am reminded of all we've done throughout the day... i am filled with thanksgiving...humbled... for the opportunity to be a mother, your mother... and i'm convicted to pray for those who aren't. i hope we have a whole yard full of brothers and sisters for you one day. i'd really love that. but, if you are all God has planned for us... my cup is so full and i am so thankful.
i love you, sarah caroline. you bring me great joy. even on looooonnnnnnnnnngggg days ;)
mom :)
