WonderLOVE

I have never felt something so amazing before. i just LOVE her more than anything i could have ever dreamed of. today we had just gotten to church and were in the middle of the opening singing and i just lost it. i couldnt' stop crying! i just pictured her beautiful, fun, sweet smile and i couldn't imagine life without her. or anything bad happening to her. so, i prayed and prayed that she would just have the most fruiful and wonderful life...and cried and cried just because i love her so much! really...it hits me at least once a day how much i wish i could hold her, cuddle w/her, kiss her, squeeze her, just love her! it really makes my heart melt more than any other thing has before, and i love it. and i love her more and more everyday! along w/that comes the wonder...
  • what will she look like when she's 5, 10, 18, 25, 30??

  • what will her interests be?

  • will we get along?

  • will i ever get any sleep once she starts driving?

  • will she love me as much as i love her?

  • will she like to hang out w/me as much as i love to hang w/my mom?

I just love her so much and am SO excited to have a lifetime of learning about her and loving her!! I am SO blessed!

I do the same thing! I get so sentimental thinking about Harper & how much I love her. I really hope she loves me as much as I love her. :-) And wants to hang out later in life. Ruby Belle is PRECIOUS!

Mary Marshall, i'm SO glad i'm not the only one who crys randomly...my husband was really worried about me at church! i just kept saying, "i can't talk about it now or i'll cry more!" and yes, i LOVE hanging w/my mom...so i'm just praying she loves to hang w/me when she's out of her teenage years!!
hey, i'll be in Shreveport September 8th or 9th - 12th for my brother's wedding if by chance you'll be around.

steph, glad Ruby Belle can bring back some memories for you!! :)
